DESCRIPTION

ARCTIC CIRCLE early video(b)blog conceptual Net performance piece 1995 by Philip Pocock and Felix Stephan Huber - an 11000 km trek by camper van from Vancouer to Tuktoyaktuk in Canada is perhaps the first art video(b)log and (b)log 1995 by Philip Pocock and Felix Stephan Huber for Photography After Photography traveling show 1995-6.Arctic Circle is an investigation into contemporary loneliness: one the one hand, traveling through a vast wilderness in Canada's North, while on the other hand, searching for a sign of life on the other side of a laptop screen.The original content of Arctic Circle was a travel to it in Canada's Yukon to walk along it. What began as a strict conceptual performance media work turned into a cyber-pulp roadmovie when two Canadian hitchhikers Norah and Nicholas hopped on board the 1974 Ford SuperVan.Viewers participated in Arctic Circle by sending in their 'postcards' as comments. Normally when traveling the travellers send postcards but for this online journey that was reversed as the concept of mass media opened up to become what is today termed participatory, user-generated 'prosumer' media.
