The net.art Restoration Project

The world wide web is in decay. Much of what was created in the last twenty plus years has disappeared from neglect or deliberate corporate purging.

About the Artwork

←

This is Light on the Net Project from 1996. You can go ahead and click around. You'll see a lot of missing images, broken links, and unstructured text. But it's the best known copy of this piece. It's a shame because Light on the Net Project is a beautiful and important telematic work from last century.

Here's some historical context:

A work by Masaki Fugihata is enjoyable in part because it is immediately gratifying. Shown in real-time 24 hours a day, it allows viewers to click the lightbulbs in a grid on and off, controlling the bulbs in an actual sculpture located in an office building in Japan.

~ ArtByte (2001)

This art decay is an endemic problem for this media; we are losing an entire generation of work. Let's do something about it.

Thank you for helping to repair this important artifact. Your work has helped train our algorithm. Soon our entire cultural history will be mediated by artificial intelligence. We will no longer need to do the costly and difficult work of maintaining relics of the past. Not only will we be "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace" just as Richard Brautigan imagined in 1967, our understanding of the past and thus our future will also be seen through an infaliable algorithmic lens.

Light on the Net Project

Masaki Fujihata

“Light on the Net” by Masaki Fujihata is a pioneering interactive art installation. It allows users to control a grid of light bulbs in real-time via the internet, 24 hours a day. This interaction directly affects the physical installation located at the Ogaki City Art Museum in Gifu, Japan. The work exemplifies the fusion of digital and physical spaces, showcasing the potential of the internet as a medium for real-time global interaction.

These pictures are taken on the midnight of 31th of May 1996 at the hall of Gifu Softopia Center.

Each light is 20W bulbs. These 49 Lights are controlled by MicroChip Controller which is reading data from PC through RS-422 line. light.softopia.pref.gifu.jp is an IBM-PC/AT compatible with Pentium 90MHz and Windows 95. This PC is sending commands to MicroChip Controller, capturing video images and processing your requests.
