C6 are Strategic artists using Tactical
media interloping in your everyday. First hitting the headlines
in 1998 with 'Man in a box' placing a member in a 7 foot by 7 foot
wooden crate
for 7 days without food, under 24 hour light and surveillance constantly
broadcast to the public using video and world wide web. Since then
C6 have courted public, web and media responses with works ranging
from the 'new media new arse' a series of web and stencil campaigns,
to newmediaspy.com a phone fax and email invitation for the public
to play in a contextualased secretive broadcast event. C6 have appeared
on channel 4, ITV, BBC television and radio news programmes. Over
the years C6 have drawn comment from all the national broadsheets.
Interventionist modes are driven by a
purposeful sense of engagement as a two-way process of interaction
between art and life, this interaction adopting a political, social,
critical or humorous aspect. |
As an Anger Management System
(AMS) Fuck you is the collective assemblage of enunciation venting
from the concrete machine.Using profanity has never been new.
Contentious voices rallied by emotive taboo words have been
heard for many decades. The sensibilities of previous years
have been dulled by the furore. However in media circles, the
word fuck is still seen as a useful stick to create some indignation.
The fact that the word is in common parlance from the 8 year
old child to 69 year old pensioner seems to do little to quell
this opinion of fuck in modern media coverage. Strategic media
networks create connections and new layers of public cooperation
and interaction. Fuck you, the of automated response within
the contextual fine art sausage machine.
Its so often the case of not what
you say, but the way you say it.
The success of this project depends
on you. You are vital in its production.
