and on large screen @ Watershed Media Centre, Bristol UK 20-29 Nov 2001

'Online but non-linear meshed and inter-linked net works for the Net. Collaborated clusters of single entities, caught in the Web where medium is content.
Trawling for content with Net works which are: collaborative, co-operative, interlinked, conversational, human, supportive, interdependent, organic, inclusive, expansive, joining, connecting, uniting, enriching...'

This was the 'call' to arms for interested artists which was intended to be intriguing yet open and flexible enough to take in various forms of art practise on the web. It must have been either particularly inspiring, or timely because we have had hundreds of submissions. Although this may also indicate that web activity has risen sharply within the last year.

To meet the unexpected scale of response we have attempted to accommodate the vast amount of international work submitted. We asked the artists to place their submission into a category to aid navigation rather than to label the work. Exploring the links gives a clear exposition of the strength and variety of web art.

The Net_Working website will continue to be enriched with more submissions as information on them comes in. Please keep browsing through the myriad of works on show, take your time and return again.
