Trilogy

Internet art: webpages of .html and .txt files. 2020

Three is a fascinating number. Many great fictions, plays and films come in trilogies, one following another in a linear fashion. In this project of mine, however, I aimed to create a circular form of storytelling utilizing the properties of HTML and TXT files. Here, each file constitutes a webpage that is like a room of display, and with each click on a link the viewers are led through a door to the next room for more spectacles. And eventually, these rooms close in on each other into a dream-like cycle, which I consider symbolic of the contemporary experience of Internet use-- a "trinity" between dream, reality and the self.
The story in this project constitutes part of the project Surge!.
