It Doesn't Just Work: DullTech on Kickstarter and Shenzhen. On account of this response, one is left to consider the relationship between digital artists and the conditions of global labor.
In McKenzie Wark's 2014 essay "Designs for a New World," the author stresses that artists, as hackers, are able to desegregate the division between their practices and other forms of labor, citing the protests of Google buses and Andrew Norman Wilson's video essay "Workers Leaving the Googleplex.

Leurs mécanismes de partage (les « Likes », « Retweets », « Followers » et autres « Friends ») encouragent la mise en place d’un « système d’évaluation fondé sur la popularité au détriment de la qualité, sur le savoir-faire en matière de réseaux sociaux au détriment du talent ». Plus il y a de Suiveurs, de J’aime, de Retweets et d’Amis, mieux c’est. La valeur, pour les médias sociaux, est proportionnelle à l’attention suscitée.

But today I’m being given a glimpse into Constant Dullaart’s Berlin space. It’s an opportunity to snoop around: printed piles of some of his ideas, upcoming projects, and documents relating to his recently launched company, DullTech. Spending three months in China on an artist residency and exploring the industrial urban sites of the Pearl River Delta in Guangdong province of the country’s south, Dullaart decided to make his own company.
