“Like Me” – a performance and interactive social media art project

What is the influence and value of social networking in our society today?

The internet has opened up an entire new way of experiencing social consensus. The global village is here and now. Billions of people are connected globally and these people are “voting” on everything from cottage cheese to political campaigns! Artists are asked constantly to enter into art competitions in which the public “votes” for the best art.

In this project, “Kablu Otah” I am exploring the influence and value of social networking. I am asking people to help me to get accepted to the Bezalel MFA program. Do their “likes” really make any difference? Will the fact that this project exists help me to get accepted? What affects does social networking have in our decision making process? Please join me in this interactive exploration.
