Cyberman

£18.99

Ari lives in a small town in Finland. He rarely leaves his apartment or has any visitors. He spends his days sleeping or sitting in front of the computer, chatting to his viewers and playing music on YouTube. His stream is continuous and compelling: there is something uniquely intimate about this unadulterated presentation of his self. For over a year Muchitsch watched Ari’s live stream on Cyberman.tv. He was unaware of her project, but she interacted with him through anonymous online conversations. Cyberman is isolated in a frame on his stream as well as in Muchitsch’s beautifully painted panels on the page. The author also sits alone, in front of her computer screen, as she watches Ari through a frame and documents his life.

Description

CYBERMAN documents the life of Ari, an isolated 50-year-old man streaming his life on the internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. He rarely leaves his house or has visitors. What he doesn’t realise is that his life is also being captured by Muchitsch, who is sat alone, in front of her computer screen, documenting his life over the course of an entire year. Muchitsch’s beautifully painted panels are a voyeuristic and compelling look into isolation and human connection, as well as an intimate portrait of a life spent online.
