Would love to have received a bounty @tldr, but @bracky never made any bug-worthy mistakes in our countless conversations. Also their last advice against automated last minute adjustments proved right in a super close final. Really enjoyed the convos and learning about the mechanics. Looking forward to whats next 🙌🏼

Excerpt from the artist's description:
I have always been spellbound by the selection marquee. The elegance and sensitivity of this element of GUI is unlike anything else. Extending the idea of circling a word with a pencil it is a physical manifestation of our mental capacity to select, bringing in all the unique material beauty that only the computer can offer. Paraphrasing Bruce Nauman, on the one hand it’s just a daily used functional element, but on the other when seen for what it is, it is a profound experience. Like something between a beer and a waterfall.
– Jan Robert Leegte

T H E W E B S T A L K E R
by I/O/D (Matthew Fuller, Colin Green, Simon Pope)
1997

The Web Stalker was an artist-made browser that challenged the emerging conventions of the new medium of the web. Its radical interface reimagined web browsing as an engagement with the structure of the web itself. It ignored images and formatting, instead allowing users to move freely among online texts while highlighting the connections among them.

The Web Stalker offered a provocation to artists working with the net, suggesting that to fight back against its emerging corporate monoculture, they must look beyond HTML, and consider other aspects of its infrastructure.
