www.artasart.org is a dynamic and interactive website where the user can influence the websites form and content, using internet or sms to 2012.

 

The content is concerned with the word «art», what art is or what art can be. Small sentences build together a symmetric structure of the website. New lines with new sentences are continuity appearing on the top of the side, while the last line is dropping out. One word is related to «art» in these sentences, like in the title. The user can submit own words, otherwise the program picks these words out of a database. The new words are added to the database. The website is in english and will accept english words only.

The form is built on mirroring and has its origin in paper cuts in folded paper. This results in a symmetric form. In the website the mirroring is used on text. Paper cut is a traditional craftsmanship in many cultures. The cutouts are often in black paper on white base.
