World Premiere of Internet art project Object of Desire by Yael Kanarek

 =============================

Object of Desire is the third chapter in World of Awe, and online 
travelogue (worldofawe.net) that chronicles a search for lost treasure 
in a parallel world called Sunset/Sunrise. The project imagines a 
post-gender and post-national protagonist. Born from an observation 
that language defines borders and territory on the Internet, Object of 
Desire examines these borders, as the chapter is written in three 
languages: English, Arabic and Hebrew. Challenging the notion of fixed 
territory, thirteen scenes of the online project download from servers 
in four locations-—in Ramallah, Tel Aviv, Izmir and New York.
  
 Object of Desire has four web addresses by which to enter:

 New York:
 www.eyebeam.org/objectofdesire
 Tel Aviv:
 www.digitalartlab.org.il/objectofdesire
 Ramallah:
 www.donialrahba.ps
 Izmir:
 www.nomad-objectofdesire.net

 =============================

 Object of Desire was awarded a 2005 Renew Media Fellowship (funded by 
the Rockefeller Foundation)
