CUREDITING - TRANSLATIONAL ONLINE WORK
A CURATORIAL/EDITORIAL PROJECT BY CONT3XT.NET IN COLLABORATION WITH
VAGUE TERRAIN

----- ----- -----

CUREDITING is a curatorial/editorial project which starts from Walter
Benjamin's point of view of translation formulated in the essay "The
Task of the Translator" in the early 1920ies. Relating the so-called
original and its translation by using the metaphor of a tangent which
touches the circle in one single point only to follow thereafter its
own way, the goal of the present project by CONT3XT.NET - kindly
hosted and co-curated by the online journal Vague Terrain - is to
access what can be understood as translational work within the context
of Internet-based Art and its curation. Artistic creation and the
processes of its re-formulation within different presentational
contexts are brought together under the label CUREDITING, a hybrid
between the two concepts of "curating" and "editing". To do justice to
this topic the broad range of material is organised such as it can be
