Alberto Frigo's “SOBJECT” was honoured with a Honorary Mention at the Prix Ars Electronica 2006, category Interactive Art.
In his on-going performance called SOBJECT, Alberto Frigo continuously assembles a record of his everyday activities by photographing every object his dominant hand uses. From a close-up perspective these objects become a ready-made code representing both recurring and unique life activities.
