[nettime-lat] Project WC is on line!


Museum of the Essential and Beyond That

invites for the inauguration of the Project WC,

at: http://arteonline.arq.br/museu/bathroom

Everything is always perfect in the virtual museums found on the Internet,
but our Museum's space does not work that way. Instead, its operations aim
at fulfilling the dictates of the principle of reality. For example, tragedy
and its esthetic or things we really do not want to think about, have been
shifted (with a touch of morbid humor) to the basement. Bit by bit, we
intend to place some problems in the Museum building, because we do not
intent it to become an aseptic parody of a real museum.

Today we are launching the bathrooms of the museum. Which is the virtual
museum that shows its bathrooms? Perhaps only the Museum of the Essential
and Beyond That...

The goal of the Project WC is to amuse people. We hope it hapens, because:

"The most revolutionary act one can commit in our world nowadays is to be
happy."

To your confort we built the following bathrooms:

medieval, baroque, primitive, erotic, still life, futurist, concrete,
conceptual, web.art

Go to our URL: http://arteonline.arq.br/museu/bathroom

Click open, search Marcel Duchamp's urinal, click inside of it and choose
your favorite! and go ahead!...;-)

We wish you have lots of fun!
