Digital provocateurs JODI pioneered Web art in the mid-1990s,  
upending the conventions of the emerging medium to create anarchic  
programs that simulated computer crashes, viruses, and error  
messages. The duo has wrought similar havoc on computer programs and  
video games, radically disrupting the language of these systems— 
including interfaces, commands, errors, and code—to subvert the  
relationship between computer technology and its users. About JODI  
cont. JODI's works are typically seen online. Their recent solo  
exhibitions include INSTALL.EXE at Eyebeam, New York, which toured to  
Basel and to BuroFriedrich, Berlin; and the Computing 101B exhibition  
at FACT Centre, Liverpool, England. Their works have also been  
exhibited at the Centre for Contemporary Arts, Glasgow; Kunstverein  
Bonn; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Zentrum fur Kunst und  
Medientechnologie, Karlsruhe, Germany; and Documenta X, Kassel,  
Germany, among others.
