t has been almost ten years since the launch of Life Sharing by the (then) enfants terribles of net.art known as 0100101110101101.org. The project, which lasted three years, involved the automatic publication in real time of all the data stored on the artists’ computer. Documents, emails and incomplete projects could all be accessed via a web interface mirroring the local file system. With the provocative slogan “privacy is stupid”, Life Sharing anticipated the mass sharing mania that informs the contemporary web 2.0 industry.
