The Long Cigarette by Rafael Rozendaal

More inovative video art at Club Internet:
The second exhibition of ambitious online gallery Club Internet, "Oracle" explores
the spiritual qualities of cyberspace. Travess Smalley, tntet and Damon Zucconi are
among the participating artists who tease otherworldly properties out of our
disembodied relationship to the products of virtual navigation. Club Internet's
unusual design bolsters the exhibition theme: its main page is stripped of all but a
small toolbar and magic wand, and the artworks are presented, as much as possible,
outside of their original contexts. Clicking the magic wand or refreshing the page
will load another artwork, but because this process is random, each path through
"Oracle" is different from the last. This navigational opacity and generative
randomness imbues the online gallery with the qualitie! Club Internet
