- We covered the Newstweek, a wall-wart sized box that injects
fake news stories over public WiFi connections last February,
but now there’s a great walk through and it seems our doubts
about this project were disproved.
The Newstweek uses ARP spoofing to change the text displayed
on several news sites. After doing some field research,
placing and configuring the device, there’s a simple web
frontend that configures the man-in-the-middle hack. Right
now, the Newstweek only allows a few news sites to be
targeted, but the team is working on allowing anyone to add
their own targets.
Aside from the relatively simple build, we’re wondering about
the social engineering aspects of the Newstweek. In our
previous coverage of the Newstweek, we couldn’t decide if this
was a social commentary art project, or a real device. It
looks like it’s both now. Would hackaday readers succumb to
injecting, “President Bacon addressed the nation last night…”
or would you do the responsible thing and put the “(D)s” and
“(R)s” in their proper places?
The Newstweek team posted a video of a short demonstration,
but check out the video after the break for the “incredibly
geeky and thorough demo.”

ART AND SOCIAL NETWORKING
Among the works on view are Paolo Cirio and Alessandro Ludovico’s
Face to
Facebook, showing for the first time in New York. It is a
multimedia installation of one million Facebook profiles, which
were appropriated by the artists, filtered using
facial-recognition software, and then posted on a custom-made
dating website sorted by facial expressions.
Eva and Franco Mattes’ The
Others is a video installation composed of 10,000 photos
the Mattes have acquired through a software glitch that gives
remote access to personal computer files. The core of the work is
not just the presentation of these images, but the act of
“stealing” and moving them from the private into the public realm.
Other artists and works represented in the gallery include Jill
Magid’s Evidence Locker,
Luke Dubois' Missed Connections,
Carlo Zanni’s
Self Portrait
with Friends,
Paolo Cirio’s Street Ghosts,
Ben Grosser’s Facebook
Demetricator.

The Future
Internet 2
Internet2, the ultra high-speed network used for research
and education, is getting an upgrade that will boost both
the capacity and flexibility for member schools and
universities to do advanced research. The first leg of the
new 100-gigabit per second network, a tenfold increase in
capacity, was unveiled at the annual fall meeting of
Internet2 members in Chicago Dec. 5, 2006.
The Grid
The Open Grid Forum (OGF) is a community of users,
developers, and vendors leading the global standardization
effort for grid computing.

- ProgrammableWeb
ProgrammableWeb is where you can keep-up with what's new
and interesting with mashups, Web 2.0 APIs, and the new Web
as Platform. The core of the site is the news blog and the 4
dashboards: Home, Mashups, APIs, and Members. New updates
every day, 365 days a year. Mashup example: GMaps Flight Tracker.
Web
2.0 (Marketing buzzword)
Web 2.0, refers to a perceived second generation of
web-based communities and hosted services — such as
social-networking sites, wikis and folksonomies — which aim
to facilitate collaboration and sharing between users. The
term became popular following the first O'Reilly Media Web
2.0 conference in 2004. Although the term suggests a new
version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an
update to any technical specifications, but to changes in
the ways software developers and end-users use the web.

- Machinima
- Machinima (a portmanteau of machine cinema, is both a
collection of associated production techniques and a film
genre defined by those techniques. As a production
technique, the term concerns the rendering of
computer-generated imagery (CGI) using real-time,
interactive (game) 3D engines, as opposed to high-end and
complex 3D animation software used by professionals. Engines
from first-person shooter and role-playing simulation video
games are typically used.

http://www.0dayart.net
Being "online" is often seen as integral to new media work.
The question becomes, if a digital file is not live on the
Internet, is it still a work of Internet art? Artists
Jeremiah Johnson (Nullsleep) and No Carrier embarked on a
new project: The mission of the resulting Web site, 0-DAY,
is to keep works of Internet art online at any costs. With a
lo-fi hacker aesthetic and a punchy attitude, the people
behind 0-DAY are the free-data pirates of the new media
world.
