The Eternal Network

Accompanying transmediale 2020 End to End’s exhibition ‘The Eternal Network’ this collection gathers contributions from artists activists and theorists who engage with the question of the network anew. In referencing Filliou’s eternal notion the exhibition and publication project closes the loop between pre- and post-internet imaginaries opening up possible futures with and beyond networks. This calls many of the collection’s authors to turn to instances of independent and critical net cultures as historical points of inspiration for rethinking reforming or refuting networks in the present.
