Outline
Random Darknet Shopper is a realtime mail-art work, which explores the shadowy world of this alternative network by means of the goods that are traded there. The work creates a direct connection between the Darknet and the exhibition space. With a budget of $100 in Bitcoins, the Random Darknet Shopper randomly selects one item each week and has it delivered directly to the venue.
