Conceptual Art about contemporary
Information Economy
Daily Paywall would serve democratic and
educational aimsby offering to pay readers
to access and understand the news articles,
while directly rewarding critical writers.
It wants to bypass the interfering middleman’s agenda.
It extracts value from the accumulation of
information to reinvest it
into socio-critical analysis.
Knowledge as an asset; information as currency;
data as raw material; determine the current
economic and social order.
Daily Paywall questions contemporary socio-economic
dynamics and how they can be rearranged
as an art practice.
The creative reconfiguration of the flow of information
is the ultimate social and artistic practice.
It’s about beauty of concepts and gestures
that examine the control over the information
society.
