Internet Yami-Ichi (インターネットヤミ市) Brussels #2

29 September - 30 September 2017
Internet Yami-Ichi (インターネットヤミ市) Brussels #2

An Internet-ish flea market

The Internet Yami-Ichi1, a flea market where people share and buy 💴 internet-related things, is back in Brussels

The internet used to feel like a vast, unexplored alien land👽. A new space of freedom, liberated from the constraints of the old world. Gradually, it conquered real life, and from an alternative, grew into a necessity. In the process, it also became increasingly streamlined, commodified, wall-gardened and heavily monitored.🙀

So maybe it's time to find a new escape,

back into the real world!🌳 Look at flea markets: much like the old cyberspace, they are chaotic assemblages of unlikely objects, amazing collectibles and useless trash. The Internet Yami-Ichi aims to be a flea market for the post-digital age. An invitation to relive, in the physical space, the freedom and gleeful anarchy of the early internet! 🌍 Discover and buy glitch clothing, captcha art, analogue archives of Google Search results, digital delicacies, screenshot postcards, https condoms, and more!

🎎Exonemo2 and their online secret society 👀IDPW3 organised the first Internet Yami-Ichi in Tokyo 🏯 in 2012. The fifth Yami-Ichi took place in Brussels, in 2014. After travelling to over ten cities, including Moscow, Seoul and New-York, the Internet Yami-Ichi is finally returning to the capital of Europe!

For this second edition, we will take over the unoccupied ground floor of iMAL building, before it gets converted into a fully renovated exhibition space to open in late 2018!

During the market, several presentations, readings and screenings will take place with Jeff Donaldson, Garnet Hertz, Alix Le Grouyellec, Noemata, and more!

On Saturday evening, join us for a series of performances by: Exonemo, Miron Galic, Lucas Lejeune, Florian van Zandwijk and a hard disk band.

In the press
  • 1. Internet Yami-Ichi (インターネットヤミ市): literally "Internet Black Market". By mixing different Japanese writing systems the word "yami" takes on the double meaning of "sick for / addicted to". Therefore, a more accurate translation might be "Internet Obsessives Market".
  • 2. Yae Akaiwa + Kensuke Sembo http://www.exonemo.com
  • 3. IDPW (I.D. Password, affectionately known as "I pass") is a loose collective of approximately 10 Japanese media artists operating under the slogan "a secret society on the internet that goes back more than 100 years", who descend on various internet scenes from time to time. They are known for producing the "Internet Black Market", "Whatever Button", "Text Party" and other projects in monthly get­-togethers. Among these, their Internet Bedroom was recently featured on online by the New Museum and Rhizome.
