Website
At the core of the multimedia project RTMark (pronounced
"art-mark") is the Internet database rtmark.com. Although
this site may appear to be just another corporate presence
on the web, RTMark's purposes are diametrically opposed to
those of the corporate world it imitates. Using the site to
research one of RTMark's "mutual funds" yields "accounts"
with stock-ticker-like names, suggesting how users can engage
in acts of corporate sabotage. RTMark also pairs "donors"
(investors) with "workers" who undertake projects ranging
from serious campaigns, such as preventing corporate juggernauts
from usurping intellectual property, to sillier ventures promoting
llama delivery services in lieu of expensive and environmentally
damaging overnight airfreight.
