About

Absurd.website is a long-term artistic practice that uses real and fictional startups, web tools, and digital services as its primary medium — the way others might use paint, performance, or sculpture. Each project exists as a small, self-contained system: sometimes speculative, sometimes fully usable, sometimes both at once.

Some projects function only as interfaces or propositions. Others can be interacted with, ordered, or activated in real life. When a transaction or action occurs, the work shifts state — moving from fiction into reality. In this sense, each project behaves like a performance: it exists fully only when someone participates.

Founded in 2020, Absurd.website began as an irregular experiment. Since 2024, it has operated as a continuous monthly practice. In 2025, a parallel line of Members Only works was introduced — internal digital projects accessible through subscription, existing alongside the public archive.

Absurd.website operates at the intersection of digital experimentation, startup logic, and contemporary art, treating the language and mechanics of the web as expressive material. Humor and absurdity are used deliberately — not as decoration, but as a method for exposing how belief, value, utility, and authority are constructed online.

Operating Notes

Absurd.website follows a simple internal framework:

  • Each project begins with a concept.
  • The concept determines the form, not the other way around.
  • Some projects are functional; others intentionally malfunction.
  • Participation, interaction, or transaction may alter a project’s state.
  • No final version is assumed.

All concepts originate from a single author. AI and other digital tools are used strictly as instruments for execution — not as sources of ideas or direction.

Communication often uses the corporate “We.” This is intentional. Although the practice is created by one individual, the fictional company voice reflects how digital products and startups construct authority, scale, and collective identity. Here, “We” functions as a narrative device rather than a literal team.

Absurdity, in this context, is not a lack of meaning. It is a structural tool — a way to test assumptions, surface contradictions, and create moments where systems reveal themselves.

Collaborations

I rarely collaborate.

When I do, it’s on small, experimental projects that don’t aim for universal approval.

If you’re comfortable with ideas that might not land with everyone, you can reach out.
