"Information Technology is not the Future. We are." That's the slogan of AURIEA HARVEY and MICHAEL SAMYN, two of the best known and highly decorated net artists and web designers of our time. Their work consists of digital sculptures, fat files, coined by digital exuberance, hilarious affluence and provocative splendour.

In the developing country called internet, controversy about ressources is sometimes as big as in defficient economies. Easily can artists who in no case want to restrict their work on minimalistic ascii art, become the target of digital correctness. AURIEA HARVEY and MICHAEL SAMYN probably are bothered by the citicicsm of purists as little as they are by the appreciation by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, which awarded them the highest decorated price for net.art - the SF MoMA Webby Prize 2000. Whoever has a couple of hours left, and a highspeed internet connection, can be sure to be part a very exclusive audience, when watching works like "wirefire" or "skinonskinonskin". And Samyn and Harvey consistently prove their emotional straightforwardness and honesty. In the worst case they make clear that "Your browser sucks".
