Up until now, we have been confronted with the creation of a machine-based environment outside ourselves. Now we are faced with the info-based environment inside ourselves, with the creation of a self, interfacing our own inner-world with the outer, with the creation of a cybernetic organism. (to quote Donna Haraway: with a cyborg.) This is the search of the eternal 'meta-individual,' which the eremites in the desert of Syria, the monks in Christian monasteries were striving for, it has been the struggle for a one-ness combined with the whole-ness. socially alone, mentally united, technologically omnipresent. this is the fresh new field of dialectic action for a true information-based art. I will present "datawork:man"-a science-art project in the realm of the genomic revolution- the new arising interrelationship between science and art, technology and information on the basis of the fundamental biogenetic constituents in the biosphere, the DNA.
