*DECAY
CHRIS BASSETT



*decay makes visible the underlying technologies in many of the images and transactions across the internet. This isn't as simple as code deconstruction though, its more about making something beautiful in its self-destruction.

5 famous images are borrowed from the Louvre and subjected to destruction as they are viewed across the internet. Much as light fades and varnish collects dust, these digital versions crumble into patterns of noise with each passing set of eyes.

Chris makes videos and new media art in Berkeley, California. Some of his work has been shown in South Africa, Greece, and England, and some more of it is in the Rhizome ArtBase. Currently, he is planning a return to art school and working with the cleansuit:collaborative to take over the world.
