In 2024 Zentrum für Netzkunst has applied for their first full scale reconstruction project. Even though in the past the initative has aquired project budget to pay artists to reconstruct their work, this was the first time a conceptual approach and a methodology was developed for a reconstruction project. The reconstruction project was founded by [https://www.digis-berlin.de/foerderprogramm/ Digis "Förderprogramm zur Digitalisierung von Kulturgut des Landes Berlin"] as the very first project on digital-born artwork. | In 2024 Zentrum für Netzkunst has applied for their first full scale reconstruction project.

''Without addresses'', as many other net art pieces, is bound to the specific, historical conditions of the Internet and the computer - the so-called hardware and software context at the time of its creation. Since the historical Internet environment in which the work was created no longer exists, it cannot be fully reconstructed. | ''Without addresses'', as many other net art pieces, is bound to the specific, historical conditions of the Internet and the computer - the so-called hardware and software context at the time of its creation.

After a thorough consultation with the two artists, the reconstruciton team decided to design and programme a static simulation of the work as a method of reconstruction. | After a thorough consultation with the two artists, the reconstruciton team decided to design and programme a static simulation of the work as a method of reconstruction. | ||
The idea behing the simulation is to create an environment in which the work is presented, described and commented at the same time. Therefore the work itself has been embeded in the so called "meta area" where the user get's additional information on individual parts of the simulation. F.e. it explains which parts of the original files were no longer available for reconstruction. Or how the generative process worked. The "meta-area" serves as a space for any potentional blanks and missing parts of the work. | |||
The design and implementation of the simulation was suppored by Marija Stupar, who also documented the conceptual decitions as well her aditional changes in the code by Karl Heinz Jeron. | |||
