In 2008 the Danish Artnode foundation published the book 'Vi elsker din Computer' (We Love Your Computer), a 500 page anthology with no images on the phenomenon of net art.

Not exactly light material, but as if the format and perhaps subject itself wasn't already dry enough, the Artnode team subsequently transformed the publication into an audio book, which consists of a single audio track containing a 14 hour long, poorly recorded, reading.

When listening to the track you can't help feel sorry for the reader who on many occasions stumbles over some of the net.art references and URL's mentioned in the book - such as the numerous references to: http://0100101110101101.org.

The 200mb audio book is available for download at Artnode's website. Quite brilliant, but unfortunately only in Danish.

A blue line painted on the ground currently runs through Copenhagen's city center.

The line represents the capital's new waterfront if all the inland ice of Greenland were to melt, prompting water levels to rise by seven meters.

The line is a part of an art project called 'Water Knows No Walls' by the artists Haubitz + Zoche. The project takes part in the exhibition Rethink: Contemporary Art & Climate Change, which is one of many events taking place in Copenhagen these days as the city gets ready to host the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference.

Most Blue Skies is a complex computer generated installation that responds to real-time changes in the atmosphere to locate and visualize the 'bluest skies' in the world.

The result is displayed as a square of blue light that shows the most accurate possible reproduction of what it would be like to look up at that sky.

Most Blue Skies is created by Lise Autogena and Joshua Portway. The installation takes part in the 'Rethink' exhibition at Nikolaj Kunsthal in Copenhagen.

In 2007 the artist Kristin Lucas succeeded in legally changing her name to... Kristin Lucas.

The purpose of changing her name to an identical name was a conceptual way of rebooting herself.

The judge who granted the request said: "So you have changed your name to exactly what it was before in the spirit of refreshing yourself as though you were a web page."

The name-changing process is documented and manifested as an installation in which Kristen Lucas shows "before and after" portraits and other related items, such as an amusing transcript of the court hearing.
