RANDOM DARKNET SHOPPER (2014)

The Random Darknet Shopper is an automated online shopping bot which we provide with a budget of $100 in Bitcoins per week. Once a week the bot goes on shopping spree in the deep web where it randomly choses and purchases one item and has it mailed to us. The items are shown in the exhibition «The Darknet. From Memes to Onionland» at Kunst Halle St. Gallen. Each new object ads to a landscape of traded goods from the Darknet.

The Random Darknet Shopper is a live Mail Art piece, an exploration of the deep web via the goods traded there. It directly connects the Darknet with the art space (exhibition space). By randomizing our consumerism, we are guaranteed a wide selection of goods from the over 16'000 listed on Agora market place.

ECTASY 10X YELLOW TWITTER 120MG MDMA

HAVE ARRIVED TODAY! STEALTH PACKAGING.

Today, we received the 10 Ecstasy Pills which the Random Darknet Shopper bought last week. The pills were vacuum-sealed in aluminium foil and placed inside a dvd case, so they would look like a dvd in a x-ray scan.

The vendor promised very fast shipping and stealth packaging. Both seem true. The parcel was sent from Germany and crossed the border and customs to Switzerland without any problems. See the parcel and its content at the «Darknet» Exhibition at Kunst Halle St. Gallen.
