Cuvinte cheie: WJ / Webjay / Webjockey / Weejay / Webjing / Webjaying

WJs reprezinta un dipozitiv modulabil de performance public
realizat prin intermediul internetului, permitind celor implicati
(Wj, webjockeys, artisti de sunet si de imagine, net-artisti,
graficieni, programatori, activisti, teoreticieni media, etc) sa
experimenteze live varietatea continuturilor si resurselor
disponibile in imensitatea retelei. Continuind munca Dj-lor si
Vj-lor, artistii Wj (webjockeys) isi extrag materialul direct de pe
internet si mixeaza fluxul retelei la infinit, in timp real.<<<<<<

Proiectele realizate de actorii diverselor retele pe World Wide
Web reprezinta mai ales o aventura solitara, in care cei activati
se reunesc intr-un mediu restrins ce nu permite extinderea intr-un
alt cadru de reprezentare. Ideea proiectului WJs vizeaza tocmai
perturbarea acestei tendinte, propunind un tip de experienta
cibernetica forte, captivanta, senzuala, in care placerea
imersiunii in fluxul retelei este deviata inspre un cadru
performativ. Astfel, demersurile individuale sau de colaborare pe
net devin experiente colective la care publicul este invitat sa
participe.<<<<

Key words: WJ / Webjay / Webjockey / Weejay / Webjing / Webjaying

WJ-s is a flexible, high speed connexion public device for web
performances (WJ-s/ession) which allows actors of the Internet (
WJs, webjockeys, sound and image artists, netartists, bloggers,
graphic designers, flashers, programmers, curators, hacktivists,
newmedia theorists, pioneers and web mutants...) to play live with
the full scope of contents available in the wideness of the
web.<<<<

In less than 20 years the World Wide Web, a space of converging
multimedia praxis, has become a vast experimentation and
exploration ground with countless artistic ramifications .As it
is often related to a solitary adventure led in a very intimate
relationship with oneâs machine, thevirtual experience is seldom
extended to another dimension of time-space. Projects involving
networkactors only take place in closed circles, within the
network, and hardly ever outside, within a live performance
environment.<<<<<
