Electroboutique: London Science Museum

Electroboutique software and internet art group had an exhibition at the London Science Museum.

 

The group is headed by Alexei Shulgin (b: 1963) and Aristarkh Chernyshev (b: 1969). Both are now Professors at the Rodchenko Art School, Moscow.

 

The exhibition consists of software and internet art objects, (products), slogans and texts.

 

The objects and installations are interactive and play with our perceptions. They promise a lot – each looking like a designer object – yet fail to deliver: they’re really about criticizing our consumerist society.

 

This particular wall piece was large at over 1.5 m diameter. The glasses featured screens playing videos, plus also filming passers by.
