Das universelle Datenwerk - datenwerk : mensch
Richard Kriesche (A)
Kriesche’s experimental arrays decipher the human being as a work of data, and life, according to this view, is the processing of data. For Kriesche, this biogenetic process constitutes the basis of the artistic process. The results are worlds of reality and image based upon codes and constructed from them.
With this approach, Kriesche takes up the grand idea of the Gesamtkunstwerk and applies it back to humanity itself. In the form of the “universal datawork,” though, it is no longer committed to the sensory experiencing of artistic spaces or the virtual experiences of multimedial techno-spaces but rather the information processing processes of life itself.
