Anders is an artist working in video, sound, new media and
installations and he is primarily concerned with identity. The human
body lies at the root of projects that formally and conceptually chart
identity and its construction as a preamble to broaching matters of
violence, genders, memory, loss or ideology in which personal
experiences co-exists with references to popular culture, the media and
consumerism. Specializing in digital technologies, he aims to mix
genres and ways of expression to explore the potential of audio visual
media. He coined the term Peer-to-peer art or (p2p art) in 2006. Art
made for - and only available on - the peer to peer networks. The
original artwork is first shared by the artist until one other user has
downloaded it. After that the artwork will be available for as long as
other users share it. The original file and all the material used to
create it are deleted by the artist. "There's no original". Six films
with a duration between 45 minutes and 9 hours have been uploaded on
the file sharing networks in one copy and their original have been
deleted. P2P Art - The aesthetics of ephemerality. Working on the
longest film ever made. A 720 hours long video titled Ambiance that
will premiere in 2020.
