"Peter Traub is a composer/installationist/net artist currently living in Charlottesville, VA.
ItSpace creates a network of pages within the social networking site MySpace. Instead of people, the pages feature everyday household objects from the artist's house. Each page has a photo of the object, a description, and most importantly, a 1-minute piece composed of samples of the object being struck, resonated, and so forth. All the pages, or objects, are 'friends' with each other, so that visitors who discover one object may jump to the others to see their profiles and hear their sounds. Visitors to the site are invited to create new ItSpace pages with pieces made from their own household objects and link those in as 'friends' of the original set." -- from Turbulence
