theBOT (2000)

http://thebot.org/

Realtime, time-based animation and audio net art project using a web search engine robot to reveal the "narrative" of the web. Text gathered by the robot moves as "packets" across the screen and is heard as layered speech spoken by a speech synthesizer. An examination and perverse poetification of the narrative of the web.

The Multi-Cultural Recycler (1996/7)

http://recycler.plagiarist.org/

The Multi-Cultural Recycler is a net art project that performs image processing and compositing on live images pulled from Web cameras around the world, in a tongue-in cheek commentary on cultural recycling and cyberspace.

The Multi-Cultural Recycler is no longer updated so some cameras may not be functional.
