Google Earth, bible events mashup, Parting the Red Sea

Austraian artist group Glue Society exhibited Google Earth mashups on Miami Art Fair 2007 on biblical events from god's eye view perspective.

I can already imagine an entire bible illustrated by similar images, like the Moses Parting the Red Sea (above), or even some 'original' Flicker images and apostle shot cell phone vids.

Research on postsecular imaginary

Research blog on visual arts/contemporary art and religious subjects. Based on the idea of we are living in a post-secular era. This blog featuring all different post in which either try to be critical on the current tendencies of religions intervention of public life, or symptoms of these, sometimes openly non-secular practices.

Jesus toasts, new mock religions, sacral websites are divided into two categories, the Strategies of Resistance, in which I am trying to find the answer for the question: Why satire?, why artist employ satire in expressing their thoughts about religious subjects. The other is New Idolatry, which focuses on the post-secular image production by religious groups, who, after encountering the modern, mainly digital means of communication, giving different answers, some of which turns out to be the opposite as they intended to .

Church without gods, which is about modern art and religious imaginary, is coming soon..
