The city was illuminated
Even underground
And it was almost impossible to completely turn off
3+3 is a brandsusan curatorial project

PULSE PLAY>Random Rules: A Chanel of Artists’ selections from YouTube
Curated by Marina Fokidis
Many believe that since the launch of YouTube in 2005, the history of the moving image has diverted from its canonical route. The website, which makes it possible for anyone who can use a computer to post a video, reaches millions of people daily. Like no other time before, it is now possible for amateur videos, music videos, film footage, commercials and news segments as well as (in some cases) artists’ videos to be mingled together in a random way, free of any preconceived hierarchy or system. According to Fokidis, the active use of YouTube is a form of curating and "Different people’s 'playlists' are transformed into exhibitions and 'tagging' becomes a process of random archiving."
For PULSE PLAY>Random Rules, Fokidis has invited several emerging and established artists to create their very own playlists thereby presenting these artists not only as artists, but as curators and as collectors as well. Artists include Andrea Angelidakis, Aids 3D, AVAF, Pablo Leon de la Barra, Erick Beltran, Keren Cyter, Jeremy Deller, Cerith Wyn Evans, Dominique Gonzalez Foerster, Dora Garcia, Rodney Graham, Annika Larsson, Matthieu Laurette, Ingo Niermann, Miltos Manetas, Ahmet Ogut, Angelo Plessas, Lisi Raskin, Linda Wallace. The selections will be available simultaneously in the video lounge at the fair and online as a YouTube Channel.

Pisces Time
Sometimes the sun rising in the morning sky is burning orange against the steel blue-grey of the ocean — just like the goldfish swimming in the black & white of Rumblefish
