Olia Lialina - My Boyfriend Came Back from the War

This web art has been around since 1996 and is surprisingly (or not) still relevant. The links within the work can lead on and on, or sometimes you end up with a black screen. It's better then, I found, to click back a few pages and start over again.

I like the added touch of the Google ads to the left of the first screen. They may, or may not, have to do with war. I reloaded a few times and got quite a variety of links.

I found the Olia Lialina web work through a list of "Classic Web Works" on Judy Malloy's web page. One of my current plans is to read her book Women, Art & Technology and explore the links on the web page devoted to the book. I've tried this before and didn't get too far. It's very easy to get distracted.

For instance, if you check the main link for the Lialina work, you end up on a page that leads to
many other web pages. Then I had to Google her to see if I could find more information about her works. Her Teleporticia cv page has quite a bit of info. The Wikipedia page is quite short but has some very good, and distracting, links - and great animated gifs.
