I haven't really had the chance to explain what this so called "Digital God" is or what it stands for, and it's a question that a few people have asked me when explaining to them my project proposal. To some extend I would like the audience to figure that out or even interpret this for themselves. The way I had interpreted the word's "Digital God" and what it stands for with my confessional booth is the internet, and everyone who has access to it. Which is mostly everyone. You could consider to some extent the dedicated blog and internet (Including cyberspace) as this "Digital God", with the viewers who access the blog and watch the confessions to be apart of this.
Not to cause any offence to anyone of any religion. This is just a project that I am undertaking and consider us to be some what "Gods" of the digital world already. We have created the internet (Including Cyberspace) where information is shared, viewed, produced and changed. We have created digital technology such as camera's and computers that generate, stores and processes date. So to some extent we could be called "Gods" of the digital world. Everyday some one is creating something through the web or innovative technology , whether it is a website, shared image or a new function camera . We create this digital based information.
This is just my own interpretation of "Digital God" in my own perspective. What I hope to achieve throughout the exhibition is for the audience to interpret "Digital God" in their own perspective after visiting the confessional booth.
