A rainy night in Los Angeles.....

Michael Wright: The Portrait Virus; is a performance/multi-media work created by new media art historian Patric Prince and artist Michael Wright presented at "CyberArts" in Pasadena in 1991. The artist took the position of a virus infecting pure digital information. The work was historic in its use of Video, Amiga's, Macs, & PC's communicating across platform and over a young Internet in a visual way. Since that time Wright has carried on an iteration of the idea as an ongoing life project.
