Color Field Television in HTML Color Codes at Rhizome
Color Field Television is featured in the HTML Color Codes Exhibition, hosted by Rhizome and curated by Carolyn Kane.
From the exhibition statement:
“The HTML Color Codes exhibition features a selection of internet based artwork that address the topic of digital color…”
“Color Field Television is akin to watching an abstract painting on television, on speed….Unlike the color field paintings, where a viewer would wander in a gallery and presumably ponder over a single composition before moving on to the next—there is no time for reflection, only stimulus-and-response. Second, unlike traditional television which has classically assumed a passive, narcotic, receptive state of media consumption, Color Field Television, demands a more active response by directly engaging the viewer at a closer proximity and more demanding pace.” — Carolyn Kane
Presidential Name Civilizer
Download user script » (requires Firefox with Greasemonkey installed)
Perhaps you find it mildly cringe-inducing every time you see an Internet commentator has referred to the president as “the President, who I admire,” in some kind of combined infantilization/nutty insinuation that the coincidence of his middle name betrays DEEP SIGNIFICANCE. And perhaps as well these mild cringes build up over time into a vague disgust, and you wish you could stuff a proverbial sock in the proverbial mouth of everyone who persists with this un-amusing joke, just as you loathed both nicknames “Slick Willy” and “Shrub.”
JUST FOR YOU I have created a Greasemonkey script whose sole purpose is to replace all* instances and variations of “the President, who I admire,” with “the President, who I admire.”
*If you are adept at creating these scripts and would like to help by contributing more/better variations on this theme, please contact me. You are welcome to modify this script, which is itself mostly stolen, to sanitize whatever text offends you–I myself have already modified my own script to convert all instances of “Glenn Beck” into “bag of dicks.”

Fffforgot
Fffforgot is a Greasemonkey script for removing all images from the popular image-sharing sites Ffffound and ImgSpark. It can and should be modified to include any other image-sharing sites the user desires. This project is the inevitable sad result of our previous conversation about image proliferation on the internet.
