router.gallery: An Exhibition Of Artists That Have Unfollowed Me
An Exhibition Of Artists That Have Unfollowed Me
Context
An Exhibition Of Artists That Have Unfollowed Me is an exhibition of artists that for some reason or another have unfollowed me on social media. I’m not sure why I retain this information; maybe in order to create this exhibition.
The router is used as an autonomous gallery space to show digital artworks. Artworks are distributed by the router through its local network with NO Internet connection; all exhibitions are accessible at the local site only. Curators present artworks on a small web server included on the router, with access granted through an open WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) over WIFI. The format brings both the intimate character of Net-Art-Activities back to a site-specific relation and opens up new possibilities for a discursive reception in a public situation. The router-gallery-space program for exhibitions installed atpanke.club in Wedding, Berlin, is presented here, along with event details and information about the artists and curators. The router.gallery is an independent satellite of panke.gallery and features exhibitions by guest curators on a monthly basis.

Born Jared Bridgeman, Akrobatik is a rapper and teacher from Boston who delivers socially conscious lyrics with the flair of a seasoned battle emcee. He released his first single, Ruff Enough, in 1998, but it was his next release, Say Yes Say Word, that achieved anthem status and solidified Akrobatik’s reputation as a talented MC. Independent New York label Rawkus released his third single, Internet MCs, and The EP compiled some of his early tracks. A frequent partner in rhyme with fellow Bostonian Mr. Lif, Akrobatik appeared on both the Emergency Rations EP and Lif’s full-length, I Phantom, before dropping his own excellent debut, Balance, in 2003.
In 2005 the MC, along with Mr. Lif and DJ Fakts One, as the Perceptionists (a name they had since 2000), released the album Black Dialogue on Def Jux, and that same year Akro signed a solo contract with Fat Beats. Additionally, Raptivism released compilation Essential Akrobatik, Vol. 1. Finally, in February of 2008, Absolute Value, an album that featured guest appearances from Talib Kweli, Little Brother, and of course, Mr. Lif and Fakts One, came out.
In 2011, he suffered a ruptured heart valve, which required emergency surgery. He detailed the incident with his bracing 2012 single “Alive.” The track appeared on his 2014 full-length Built to Last, which included guest appearances from Masta Ace, Edo. G, Lif, and others. In 2017, Mr. Lif and Akrobatik revived The Perceptionists, releasing Resolution on Mello Muisic Group.
