Also available at each artwork location is a link to a downloadable e-catalogue for each artist. To create these e-catalogues, I used Bookleteer by London UK-based art and design studio Proboscis. They are meant to be printed, folded into a booklet, shared and enjoyed. Download links for each artist’s booklet are below:

Jeremy Bailey
Brian Joseph Davis
Dave Dyment
Willy Le Maitre
Fedora Romita
Swintak

If you prefer to read them all in one document, or maybe don’t have access to a printer to make the booklets, you can download a regular PDF file containing all the information in each artist’s e-catalogue here:

Nice to see mentions of In-Site Toronto around the web at Networked_Performance, Now Public, Neighbourhood Arts, and the Regroupment des Arts Interdisciplinaires du Québec.

Torontonians are strongly encouraged to go out and see the artworks in the wild, but for those of you not as close by, here is a screenshot of Dave Dyment’s work at Teriyaki Experience Markham Town Centre, to give you a sense of what the experience of viewing the In-Site Toronto works is like:

We’ve created a Google map of the artwork locations to make discovering the artworks even easier:

In-Site Toronto is a series of newly commissioned work that will be presented on the portal pages of several wireless internet hotspots in the Wireless Toronto network. Artists Dave Dyment, Swintak, Jeremy Bailey, Fedora Romita, Willy Le Maitre and Brian Joseph Davis have created works that will be automatically displayed when users log in to their Wireless Toronto user account at designated hotspots. The project will be launched on March 31, 2010 by media arts organisation Year Zero One, is curated by Michelle Kasprzak, and was produced with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.

The launch of the project will take place on March 31, 2010, at the El Mocambo (464 Spadina Ave, Toronto), in association with Spacing’s spring 2010 issue release party. Wednesday, March 31, 8pm-12am. Admission is $10 (gets you a new mag), or $5 for Spacing subscribers.

Hope to see you there!
