Web browser as an Art Gallery.
You might be wondering why last August that our main homepage www.streetkonect.com wasn't loading the traditional logo. It was replaced by Lea Valle’s photo slides entitled “nutrition facts”.
Last January it was replaced also with Ernest Dino’s video art “Queen City”.
From the inception of streetkonect we really wanted to use the main homepage not as normal website. Flaunting our logo like a normal blog wasn’t enough.
That is why from the start when we bought the domain the blog was addressed as blog.streetkonect.com. We tried to update the homepage every now and again however the team's enthusiasm to refurbish the site eventually tuckered out because lack of proper programming

We are happy about the growth and outcome of street art today. A lot more people appreciate and support the field now. Just like the enthusiasm that we felt during the street art inception in the Philippines, we are excited to witness new forms of art emerging into the scene.
One of the new art forms is the use the web browser as an exhibition space. The browser has become a powerful tool and now that we have collaborators that have software engineering know-how, many future possibilities can be experimented and done. The next web art show we are showcasing CYMKa’s work entitled: “runExecuteCommand”.
