> about ubermorgen:: : artist | company
> The approach that ubermorgen:: : artist | company has taken is far
> removed from the traditional understanding of art practice,
> resembling acts of social net terrorism or radical corporate
> marketing strategy. Operating largely within the web environment, but
> not obeying normative approaches to performative public interventions
> or structured net art activity, ubermorgen applies the professional
> approaches of a corporation in marketing approaches and brand
> building, backed by the understanding of online communities and
> radical thinking to a range of projects that make an impact on large
> audiences (whether directly or indirectly) around the world. The
> byproducts of their digital legal art projects often exist in the
> form of printed documents as well as photocopies, thus making the
> distinction between originals and fakes very difficult. The
> exhibition [f]originals (fake - originals) evolves out of this
> process and focuses on the legal documentation resulting from
> www.vote-auction.net (initially www.vote-auction.com), where they
> offered United States voters the opportunity of selling their votes
> online during the last general election, which saw George W. Bush
> elected as president.
