Abstract:
This poster session discusses ‘The Trespass of her Gesture’ one of the exhibited pieces at ISEA2002. The piece features a ‘virtual graffiti artist’ and is textual in nature. The focus of this session is upon viewing the work as ‘writing’ under the aspect of both verb and noun. That is to say, we may view the virtual graffiti artist as being engaged in the act of writing, or as being a kind of writing herself. The tendency of the piece to suggest this double aspect places it (and us) onto philosophically interesting ground.
