:REWORK_RESEARCH [vuk cosic]:

Obviously there are hundreds of pieces of work that have been ‘reworked’ for one reason or another but one artist that came straight to mind was Vuk Cosic. Cosic is primarily a net artist with an interest in all things ASCII. He has created several scenes taken from popular films such as ‘Psycho’ and ‘Deep Throat’ and produced them completely in ASCII which although I find a little hard to watch an interesting concept. I will touch upon net artists more under the re-invent heading as I feel that net art re-invents the form and purpose of traditional art which creates something new and unique. Cosic does do this here but I’d thought I’d give him a mention as in this particular series he exploits existing material in order to create.
