Title: Let's make Art Year: 2003 URL: https://tyuchuan.com/wp-content/1988-2014/mart02/page-e/e_main.htm [Active] Format: Web Interactive Installation, Java Themes: "make art" together. Image to code. Code and decode. Internetwork Potocal. Meaning of art in technological age.
Artist(s): Yu-Chuan Tseng 曾鈺涓 City/Country: Taiwan
Notes: 1) There is a typo on the artist's name as 娟 rather than 涓, in Wang and Chen (2007)'s article.
2) DigitArts Website puts LEE Chia-Hsiang 李家祥 in the field of authors, who is the technique support as described in the artwork website. Therefore, this entry doesn't include LEE Chia-Hsiang in "artist(s)" field. After this work, Tseng started to mention LEE Chia-Hsiang as the author of the artworks in her PhD thesis.

Title: Search Your Name 《搜自己》 Year: 2006 URL: http://8gg.ica.org.uk/ [Inactive] Format: Website Themes: Mimicry. Search engine. Plunder data from network.
Artist(s): 8GG 八股歌 (Haiqing Jia 賈海清, Yu Fu 富鈺) City/Country: Beijing
Note: 1) According to the list of "Participants" in Cyberarts, the International Compendium Prix Ars Electronica in 2000, the submitted URL of the work is http://8gg.ica.org.uk/. See on page 308 (https://archive.aec.at/media/assets/e04c9f84ced15553a4b2adda8ae45ef1.pdf) on The Print Archive of Ars Electronica (https://archive.aec.at/print/showmode/42/). While www.ica.webbler.co.uk/ is the link redirect from the artist's artwork page, it is inactive as well.
2) Regarding the Chinese name, sometimes it is translated to 《搜索你的姓名��. Here, I referenced to the version on the artist's website.
3) Under "net.8gg" of the artist's website, believed to be artwork related (inter)net, includes "Beijing time", "clone.click", "Sentence break", "flying over Square", "Words hailed", and "Dance Taiji". These works are not recorded since they lack information about the creation time, description and format.

Title: 010000.org Year: 2008 URL: 010000.org [Active] Format: Countdown of 10,000 years website Themes: Origin of time. Religious and archaeological perspectives of time. Eternal in data. Contractual obligations of data.
Artist(s): Zhenhua Li 李振華 and aaajiao (Wenkai Xu 徐文愷) City/Country: Beijing/Zurich/Berlin/Hong Kong, Xi'an/Shanghai/Berlin
Note: There are some records (e.g. http://www.art-ba-ba.com/main/main.art?threadId=17610&forumId=8) about artist 徐文凯 created artwork for the Nike Dunk show in March 2008 with no titled name. The audience wears the Nike shoes inserted with a sensor and walks on the screens displaying Google Earth. It will control the cursor to browse Google Earth. Generally, it is presumed artist 徐文凯 is 徐文恺 (aaajiao). However, neither this work nor the exhibition are included in his CV and his website. This work is, therefore, not entered as part of the entries.

Title: Blog Archaeology 《博客考古》 Year: 2010 URL: N/A [N/A] Format: Installation comprises of metal structure, acrylic, electronic scales and SD memory cards with data archives of screenshots and html files from everyday updates of RobotWisdom.com, built by Jorn Barger between 1999 and 2008 Themes: Data weight. Physicality and materiality of information/data.
Artist(s): aaajiao (Wenkai Xu 徐文愷) City/Country: Xi'an/Shanghai/Berlin
Note: Occasionally, critics and galleries adopt another title (Blog Archaeological). Here, the title from the artist's official website is selected. The artist has a work titled blogArchaeological 0 in 2009, which I believe to be the preliminary version of this work. Thus, I did not separate a new entry.

Note: The artist created Cloud Data (2009) and Turritopsis Nutricula (2010), which are now revitalized through URLs on the Internet in his retrospective exhibition in 2020. Since these two works are initially presented in installation, and their core technological feature is algorithm generation, they are not included in this phase.
