get.real addresses the complex interrelationship of nature/life and technology, literally drawing out the blurred borderlines of our existence. The baby exists (in reality) only in the mothers body and, yet, its (virtual) presence exceeds these limits. Its somewhat eerie to look at the moving foetus in the mothers body being mediated on the screen of the computer. From common sense point of view there is a tension between what is happening and how things supposed to happen - the human being is not born but is already on the Internet. However, this tension finds its solution in the title get.real, the demand which as if reconstructs the normal order of things. But the piece has also further implications. By opening up the inside of pregnant womens body, the womb on the screen the artist defines a cyberspace as exclusively maternal. The space behind the screen becomes the Matrix, the location of the feminine. That corresponds to the views by many artists and theorists who claim that the interiority of cyberspace, like the interior of a cave, is like being enclosed inside the womb (Margaret Morse).
