About:


Where do you begin with a book like this; a book containing dialogues on a micro contemporary avant-garde video art movement on social media called “CoreCore”? It is, as “0nty”, the lead editor said, more of a toll booth; this book ensures no possiblity for the artists to be cut out of the loop when the academics arrive en scene. That aside, it is a fascinating collection of texts on cultural theory, psychoanalysis and philosophy, which, as filmmaker and contributor Mischa Dols said: “has no right to be as good a book as it is; it wasn’t supposed to actually be good”.

This book follows on from the proceedings of "All Things are Nothing to Us", a symposium on CoreCore and the Contemporary Online Avant-Garde, held on December 2nd. 2023, at the School of Visual Arts, NYC; organized by 0nty and OnMyComputer (Dylan Smith). The book contains a mass of visual art from upward of 140 contributors. Monumental book.

“CoreCore is two words, but its the same word; there is a mirror stage between the cores of CoreCore. Who is going to say what the Core is? In a way, that’s what Dada does.”

— Lucas Ferraço Nassif
