In the News (Tue 2 Dec 08)

  
  Superbad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Superbad, the 1997 creation of web designer Ben Benjamin, is an artistic work that was produced using the tools and methods of web design.
Often a subproject will have clickable elements linked to other pages within that subproject, or to another, or that just provide visual richness (for example, the "follow" subproject has a grid of circles with arrows that follow the mouse cursor; each circle is a link to a different page within the site).
"Superbad" is also a song by James Brown.

 It's Better Than Good - It's Superbad
Yet, to enter Superbad is to embark on an adventure in subverted surfing.
Benjamin conceded that Superbad is capable of breaching the conventions of Web design, but he asserted that he still adheres to the major rules.
Cyber-miles away from Superbad on the Web is an outline for "Keep It Snappy", a presentation Benjamin gave last year on techniques Web designers could use to encourage return visits to their sites.

Superbad revels in the human want to collect random items and be intrigued by them, as well.
In fact, I would say Superbad is high art in the context of web art, because web art is different from all art in one very special way: its high level of interactivity (not to mention accessibility, for this is art to be had in the home).
Superbad is so interactive that, like absurd, no viewer can have the same experience.

Superbad has been featured I.D., Wired, Paper Magazine, and The New York Times online, as well as the 2000 Whitney Biennial.
Superbad is a rapid-fire manipulation of pop imagery, the vocabulary of graphic design, and the Web itself, bringing attention to the world of visual culture.
As with Pop Art in the 1960s, the constantly changing image stream in Superbad engages with one's awareness of the world around, compressing and reformatting it as if to be seen for the very first time.

 Soft Skull: Superworse - The Novel A Remix of Superbad: Stories and Pieces by Ben Greenman, Edited by Laurence Onge;
The original McSweeney’s Superbad comprised more than two dozen pieces in various genres from serious fiction to post-modern satire to lyric.
Onge, the [fictitious] editor who introduced Superbad, will oversee the paperback, allowing a clear set of themes and characters to emerge from the welter of styles.
Superbad was a humor collection in the finest McSweeney’s tradition; Superworse is a novel in the spirit of Borges and Barthelme.

 *spark-online.com >> version 31.0, APRIL.2002 >> DEREK JENKINS
His new book of short stories, keeping with the self-inflating tradition of HWOSG and given the suburban schoolyard moniker of Superbad, displays the good and bad of the McFiction direction.
Characters and plotlines are rarely sacrificed to humor or laboratory tinkering in Superbad; Greenman's humor hinges more on the authenticity of his absurd characters and plots.
This is what qualifies Greenman's comparisons to Kafka: Kafka was a very, very funny guy, but Gregor Samsa didn't wake up as a gigantic bug because it made the writer chuckle.

 McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Ben Greenman Week: On a Book Entitled "Superbad"
And it is apparent to me that your head is too large for the rest of your body." I tell you: this new assertiveness of his was almost like a disease.
To distract him, I asked him what he thought of Superbad, a copy of which I had messengered to him as he lay in the hospital, terrified of the Cramped-Toe Syndrome that he was certain would take his life.
He is dead now — on his way home from buying new, roomier shoes, he went under the wheels of a bus — but when he was alive, he was righter than right.

 The Capitol City Dusters | @superbadrecords.com
They play punk with an ear from the past, a shared sense of melody from the present and an anthemic quality that transends both.
To date, The Capitol City Dusters have toured in the US (1997, 1998, 1999, 2002) and Europe (1999, 2002, 2003), released a handful of releases including their first full-length, "Simplicity," all on Superbad Records.
In April 2002 The Dusters released "Rock Creek," their first record to be released exclusively on Dischord Records.

 McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Ben Greenman
One Superbad highlight, a series of incomplete librettos for current-events musicals like "Elian!" and "Microsoft!," seems like relatively conventional humor, until Greenman himself pops up in the final installment, as a character being manipulated by other characters into writing the musical in which he's starring.
It can be difficult to tell whether there's anything but dead air at the eye of Greenman's stylistic hurricanes, though the humanism he exhibits in his traditional stories offers reason to hope that he's not just being clever for the sake of cynical virtuosity.
Regardless of intent, the contents of Superbad are wickedly funny and curiously effective.

A lot of art is also like a tofu burger — you have to believe in it, and in yourself.
Its enduring appeal is in its rich visual and textual vocabulary, as wonderfully weird as any Sigmar Polke retrospective or vintage California Golden Arches or Indiana dog-food factory, all within a strict syntactic structure, not unlike an ensemble of fixed-form poems, each one a gem, each one adding sparkle to the others.
While others flex steroid-saturated muscles (http://www.superbad.com/1/muscle/index.html), Superbad presents a Gandhiesque demeanor.

After having a number one R&B hit with "Caravan Of Love," as a member of Isley/Jasper/Isley, singer/songwriter/keyboardist/producer and former Isley Brothers member Chris Jasper wisely chose another message song, the chugging "Superbad," for his solo debut on his own Gold City label.
