CURATING YOUTUBE BOX [CYB]

project by sakrowski & s.baeucker (2008 - today)

Curating Youtube Box (CYB) is a temporary infrastructure for an exhibition space reacting to contemporary WEB 2.0 phenomena such as USER GENERATED CONTENT. CYB includes the hardware needed to stream movies via the Internet and the (temporary) exhibition environment these movies are presented in. The individual CYB exhibitions are managed via a web interface, allowing organizers/curators to remotely access the CYB. Individuals partaking in the project have the opportunity to curate a version of the exhibition. Thus, the statement "everybody is an artist" may be verified by means of the CYB.
