Starting from october 2009, Morality is the yearlong leitmotiv of Witte de With, Center for contemporary art. This web platform is part of a constellation of exhibitions, a film program, a performance cycle, a symposium and a book.
The website aims to level the playing field between curators, artists and the general public by providing them with a tool for engaging in discussions and debate. By "crowd-sourcing" the artistic and theoretical discourse surrounding morality, all those who contribute comply with the web 2.0 concept of the "user".
The platform sets out to harness and visualize different levels of "user"-participation, from the visitor who does not contribute anything – but leaves a trace just by visiting – and the unaware twitter user whose conversations are overheard and integrated in the discussion, to the highly involved participants, guest contributors and curators who's (visual) comments, associations and stories make up a dynamic cloud of images and texts.
