IOCOSE new work ‘An empty postcard’ (2011).

In ‘An empty postcard’ (2011), the viewer is invited to watch and share 
a series of valueless videos from YouTube. Sharing, a buzzword of 
Web2.0, is thus reversed in its meanings. It is exaggerated in its 
promises but doomed to result in an overload of empty noise.

‘An empty postcard’ (2011) is based on the videos received by artist 
group IOCOSE in the 2009 and 2010 editions of the NoTube Contest. The 
winner of the NoTube Contest is the participant who manages to find the 
most valueless video on YouTube. A good NoTube video cannot be 
summarized, does not offer any keyword for searching it, is not linked 
by any other web site, has not been discussed and cannot be discussed. 
Perfectly empty, unable to communicate, it is the ultimate video to be 
shared.
