Veterans of web-based autobiographical performance, Olson and “Coach Mandiberg” have teamed-up to get Marisa through her dissertation by framing it as an act of endurance. Every day for the month of September, Olson will spend all day writing while webcam shots and screencaps of her desktop are automatically uploaded to the net every 60 seconds. This gesture of transparency is a continuation of Olson’s research into the role of sousveillance in “The Art of Protest in Network Culture.”
This page will update itself every minute while the performance is active–during normal business hours, EST.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Michael on his TheRealCosts project, as well as many websites under the Subsidiary Design banner. Also, I was his student at CSI for 3 years.
Definitely check this all out.

for those that don’t know, The Real Costs is a firefox plugin that displays Carbon Emissions inline with various transportation websites (like airline ticketing websites and driving directions sites.) There is a pretty huge update to the script.
Well not really. I’m featured in this video for like 20 secs. but it’s 20 seconds more than you!! (unless you are michael mandiberg or the host. then it’s significantly less time on screen than you.)
