dadaland collective: an international
group of digital artists coordinated by Bermagui artist Bob Georgeson
are exhibiting their work in Bega during November and December. The
collective came together in 2018 through Facebook groups to be part
of The Wrong Biennale, a global event celebrating digital culture.

2000 artists exhibiting online and at various locations around the
globe.
The 18 artists from 7 countries work
across a variety of mediums including video, sound, graphics and
performance that not only explore how technology can be used to make
art, but also how technology impacts on human interactions. Much of
the work is influenced by, or references the Internet. Glitch,
generative art, computer graphics, smartphone creations and
environments created from information all are featured.
The collective is Tim Tsang (USA), The
Implicit Order (USA), Elle Thorkveld (USA), Milica Raicevic (Serbia),
Darko Vukic (Serbia), Gabriela Green Olea (Australia), Jose Ramon
Alcala (Spain), Kerry Baldry (UK), Parch Es (Mexico), Stefan Ljumov

Zarevski (France), Miloš Bojović (Serbia), Yartn Saloan (Mexico),
Systaime (France), Andrew Stys (UK), and Bob Georgeson (Australia).
The exhibition opens at midday on
Friday November 1st at Sugar Sounds in Bega with a live
performance by local duo The Sugarants. It is the first of a planned
series of art events at Sugar Sounds as an adjunct to their music
business.
The exhibition links through to The
Wrong Biennale Epicentre in Valencia in Spain. It is an exciting
opportunity to see some of the world's leading digital arts
practitioners in an intimate setting.
