The idea of the internet as a shapeless mass of vapor hovering above the ground creates the illusion of a benign and intangible entity. Since its creation, artists have helped dispel this image by looking through the metaphor to the material and political constituents of the internet. There we observe a malleable practice made of political, strategic, corporate, and interpersonal decisions.
