The Multi-Cultural Collider
There has been a recent proliferation of video cameras on the World Wide Web. These cameras provide documentation, surveillance, and a very specific representation of the camera owners and their surroundings. Ordinary people and places around the world are instantly subject to becoming part of the mass culture - and are potentially also subject to cultural recycling. "The Multi-Cultural Recycler", in addition to its tongue-in-cheek attempt at performing cultural recycling on ordinary situations, also examines the meetings and collisions of all of these disembodied representations out in "Cyberspace."
When a visitor accesses "The Multi-Cultural Recycler", s/he is presented with two options for how to "start" the "Recycler".
