About Anders Bojen & Kristoffer Ørum (DK)
Anders Bojen and Kristoffer Ørum are an artistic duo who create works that challenge prevailing views of the world. They often use a pseudo-scientific approach which attempts to transform existing concepts into something new and provide alternative ways of seeing the world.
Their works employ information and material from popular culture, scientific literature and items collected from the Internet. These materials form the background inspiration for works that are often based on stories and underlying structures.
The duo makes sculptures, installations and other works on the Internet. An example of their net art practice is Radiant Copenhagen (2009), which uses maps and stories to show a future Copenhagen. At the launch of Radiant Copenhagen the web page was linked with a bus tour to the different physical locations in the city. Bojen and Ørum have also created the work Topographies of the Insignificant (2010), which both illustrates the broad perspective and the small micro-histories that occur in four European cities – also charted on Google Maps.
