50 Years of Media Art in The Rose Goldsen Archive

Mission Eternity Project T-shirt, with its Capsule Identification Number, two Mission dollars, and etoy statement

Description:
Produced for the Goldsen Archive. Between 2005 and 2011 the MISSION ETERNITY GROUND-CREW collected, scanned and processed data (official documents, personal photographs, interviews, voice samples, job related data and lots of other material). In hundreds of hours of research, many live sessions with Sepp Keiser and post production, etoy studied the nature and architecture of the info-sphere generated by the TEST PILOT during his life. Results: a M∞ ARCANUM CAPSULE (a digital file of ca. 1 gigabyte) and a contract between the PILOT and etoy.CORPORATION that regulates the transfer and integration of the PILOT's mortal remains into the MISSION ETERNITY SARCOPHAGUS. As soon as the M∞ PILOT contact is submitted, the M∞ CAPSULE ID is generated automatically: a unique 16 character alphanumeric code identifies each PILOT and his/her data.
