“TheRealKarenEliot” is an open account on Facebook. The profile picture shows the password, so everyone is invited to log in and be Karen Eliot. Since 2012, hundreds of people are using this account. Some do it for fun, some for advertising or promotion, some for political activism and cultural hacking. In this way, Karen’s virtual self becomes a collective mind – Karen’s statements, interests, opinions and Karen’s circle of friends are getting mixed with those of others and therefore relativized. Basically, Karen is a nice person, smart as Wikipedia, entertaining as Youtube, annoying as 4Chan. Join her! Open the gates of the digital Panopticon and log in: facebook.com/therealkareneliot.

Karen Eliot (DE)

Karen Eliot is a name that refers to an individual human being who can be anyone. When one becomes Karen Eliot, then one's previous existence consists of the acts other people have undertaken using that name. In 1985 Karen Eliot was not born, s/he was materialized from social forces, constructed as a means of entering the shifting terrain that circumscribes the ‘individual’ and society. This specific Karen Eliot works on issues of surveillance, power and group dynamics, using the Internet as an artistic tool. Karen Eliot has exhibited Transmediale Festival in Berlin.
