The egg of the Internet



Franz Feigl, Erik Hobijn, Dick Verdult



What happens if a living organism nests in the Internet, if an egg is being layed in the Internet and the Internet is responsible for this life? The Internet is the fastest growing community on earth. The digital community is starting to develop modes of behaviour and is searching for orientation-models. The projekt endeavours to analyse and specify the "digital living environment". An installation, setting up a digital room in the virtual world (and vice versa), is being inhabited by a non-digital being and can only be visited via Internet. In the beginning, the installation serves as a hatchery for an egg, wich can be incubated if the Internet takes care of it in the right way. The new living environment has to get used to being responsible for living beings
