Discoder
exonemo: Kensuke Sembo, Yae Akaiwa/J

A "discoder" is a device which destroys HTML informatic code and its codes of behavior, a contradiction provider for the web. In Discoder the user "messes" with the web"s HTML internet metastructure. The tags in HTML slip, and the integrity of HTML source code is compromised as if eaten by bugs. The user is liberated not only from the reassuring mathematical illusions of the HTML interface itself, but also from the subtle suggestions of normative behavior presented to the individual by the computer.
