I take no responsibility for these people or their ideas, but got this in me in-box and thought some of the 'Lith might find it strikes a chord.

C6 are
Strategic artists using Tactical media interloping in your
everyday.
First hitting the headlines in 1998 with 'Man in a box'
placing a member in
a 7 foot by 7 foot wooden crate
for 7 days
without food, under 24 hour light and surveillance
constantly
broadcast to the public using video and world wide web.
Since then C6 have
courted public, web and media responses with works
ranging from the 'new
media new arse' a series of web and stencil
campaigns, to newmediaspy.com a
phone fax and email invitation for the
public to play in a contextualased
secretive broadcast event. C6 have
appeared on channel 4, ITV, BBC
television and radio news programmes.
Over the years C6 have drawn comment
from all the british broadsheet
papers.

As an Anger Management System (AMS) Fuck you is the
collective assemblage of
enunciation venting from the concrete
machine.

Using profanity has never been new. Contentious voices
rallied by emotive
taboo words have been heard for many decades. The
sensibilities of previous
years have been dulled by the furore.
However the word fuck is still seen as
a useful stick to beat a call
to indignation, tickle us with its humour or
offend us with its
violence.

C6's AMS is a strategic media network creating
connections and new layers of
public cooperation and interaction. Fuck
you, the automated response within
the contextual fine art sausage
machine.

Its so often the case of not what you say, but the way you
say it.

The success of this project depends on you. You are vital in
its production.
