A print version of a forgery of a Francoise Gamma gif that I commissioned from Sterling Crispin as a response to his experiment in net art distribution and the sale of virtual work.
His instructions were make a forgery of a Francoise Gamma gif, not a copy of an existing piece, but a convincing "new" work.

from Sterling Crispin:
This commission was especially interesting and fun for me to work on. i'm a fan of Francoise Gamma's work, and we have collaborated in the past, so it was a great pleasure to attempt a forgery of his work. after doing a bit of research and taking the animation this far, i decided not to continue. i think its on the edge of a convincing gamma artwork, but the nuances and subtle missing style creates a tension and i think highlights what makes Francoise Gamma's work so interesting.
