eArts or or eFarts or eTrash

Shanghai eArts Festival 2008

See those so called (f)artists setting up their exhibition outdoor but their actions are none other than in the process of generating more visually polluting urban trash, indeed more reminiscent of those fragmented glasses lacing the parapet top of fences to keep out unwanted elements, an already unfortunate urban fixture exposing our endangered living and hostile environment. So what has this got to do with electronics or arts or eArts? Scummy trash!

More eTrash polluting the plaza's pool. These eJelly-Fish are supposed to light up in the pool but the overall presentation was so lame that they were indeed visually confounding in their existence, not even close to electronically appealing. What is the Shanghai Urban Management supposed to be doing? High time to get rid of eTrash and keep the pool as pristine as it functionally should be.
