Please come to find out more about the exciting works of Guo Cheng and Wind Verification in particular, which addresses: ‘the relationship between the common perception of social media as altered, selective representation of reality, and art as means for collective “peer-review” of the unverified viral, in an attempt to provide alternative visions to what post COVID-19 “World Wide What” could become.’
