The Jew's Daughter. The Z-machine preservation project - 9:05 (Adam Cadre) J B Wock. Post Position » art. Nick Montfort & Páll Thayer At the Boston Cyberarts Gallery 141 Green Street, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130 Located in the Green Street T Station on the Orange Line Phone number: 617-522-6710 The exhibit runs March 6 through March 16. Opening: 6pm-9pm, Thursday March 6. Part of the life of remarkable artworks is that they are appropriated, transformed, and made new. The programs (Commodore 64 BASIC by Nick Montfort, Perl by Páll Thayer) re-create aspects of the concepts and artistic processes that underlie well-known artworks, not just the visual appearance of those works.

The Perl programs in the exhibit are from Microcodes, a series of very small code-based artworks that Páll Thayer began in 2009. “Páll’s work in Microcodes engages explicitly with the way computer programs are read by people and hwo they have meanings to those trying to understand them, modify them, debug them, and develop them further,” Nick Montfort said. Ten programs will be exhibited, running on ten computers. The Executor, by William Gillespie and Nick Montfort. Sea and Spar Between. Flight Paths, flightpaths.net. The Breathing Wall.
