Koan01 is a digital paradox born from the new technological paradox of the Information Age.
Today, especially in Western society, the concept of “being informed” completely lost its meaning, everybody is informed, we are over bombing every day with hundreds of thousands of messages conceived with the sole object of hitting our attention and the one of other millions of passers-by, TV viewers, consumers, users being targets and victims of communication industry as we are. Among all this information, only a very low percentage can be used to do something different than creating futile desires or than making us assume superficial attitudes and prejudices.
Pushing those logics to their extreme consequences, koan01 attempts to force a critical reading of a state of things through conceptual, social and perceptive paradoxes. Koan01 is a techno-social virus that reproducing himself by old and new media in order to infect reality and virtuality through its numerous instances.
Koan01 lives and works in and through the person of Massimo Vicentini, an italian dreamer artist living in Bologna.
