KAKAKOMPYUTER MO YAN! at Comuna

Preview of When WE Love

Perhaps, there is no divide between the URL & IRL.

August 23-September 21 2024
Exhibition at Space63 at Comuna, Makati, Philippines

Space shared with Agu Crisostomo, Arts Serrano; thanks to Dan Matutina; production and installation support by Sam & Jas of Et Alt

Custom software, pisonet cabinet, CRT television, remote, computers, assorted decor, bootleg DVDs, karaoke clearbook

From data center mythologies, bootleg solidarities, fandom & grief, state-sanctioned holes, abortion forums, TikTok battles: these websites, games, software, videos, and more explore the endless exploitation, ecstasy, escapism, and freedom online...

Two different setups of our exhibition on Filipino internet art: one a classic pisonet with mouse & keyboard (no cash required), and another a home videoke with remote control and microphone. The pieces exist in different forms; some highly interactive, others more ambient.



Each physical installation uses different decorative materials from our homes & local stores, adapting our karaoke party to the many ways and spaces in which we gather and sing.
