Science Museum, Exhibition Road, Chelsea, SW7 2DD

Exhibitions: , Art, Science, Museum

How Much: Free!
The internet eh? You obviously like it, 'cos you're on Spoonfed. But sometimes it can all be a bit overwhelming, don't you think? The sense of information overload is something that is being explored in a new work by artists Mark Hansenand Ben Rubin at the Science Museum until December 2010.

'Listening Post' is split into seven separate scenes, each one displaying uncensored samples of text lifted from live internet chatrooms. Constantly shifting, this work highlights both the beauty and the spontaneously sprawling aspects of the internet, and, indeed, of much of the modern world.

Until 31.12.11.
