The Newsstand Project (Collaboration with Dan Bayles), 2006
Public performance.
Dimensions vary.
A public performance collaboration organized by Dan Bayles, who built numerous newsstands to be installed throughout the City of Los Angeles. Participants were welcome to distribute any types of materials such as magazines, leaflets, etc.
As a participating artist, I participated with The Barcode Project, which provided barcode stickers to be that could be applied onto pre-existing labels of merchandize products.
Each sheet of stickers consists of 8 barcodes corresponding to 8 words: sky, truth, intimates, syncopate, vertiginous, onelove, tank, and terror.
Applying the sticker to a product would disrupt its transaction process, temporarily causing a glitch in its consumption.
