In the early days of cyberspace, important information was collected on Art Com Electronic Network on The WELL. This information was catalogued, and organized in a definitive database that contains words of wisdom about the following subjects: art and football....politics.... religion technology....body odor ....sex computers....international relations....television some horiscopes....miracle cures....the WELL happiness....music ....toilet paper environment....pets transportation.... food.... success salt....work
Begun in 1986, Bad Information was one of the first works of net art. Calling attention to our tendency to accept computer-produced information as true, Bad Information invited WELL users to participate in the creation of a questionable database. Over 400 entries were received for this database which was conceived, collected and produced by Judy Malloy |
