Internet Meme Art Installation
Artist Wafaa Bilal brings back the most popular internet meme Technoviking, through his Meme Junkyard art installation. Technoviking went viral on Youtube in 2007. If you are unaware of Technoviking then check this video on Youtube. The original video was shot in 2000 during a parade in Munich, Germany.
Meme Junkyard was displayed at the AND Festival in Manchester and featured an air-filled avatar of Technoviking that interacts with Twitter using #technoviking. It goes flat if nobody tweets and inflates if people tweet with the hashtag.
