The 25th anniversary of BowieNet
On Sept. 1, 1998, long-time internet aficionado David Bowie and the network services companies UltraStar and Concentric Network Corp launched BowieNet in the US. It was effectively the first internet service provider run or branded by a rock star and a social media platform for Bowieheads — one that the Duke himself would frequent over the years. For a monthly fee, fans received dial-up internet access, unreleased music, artwork, live chats, first-in-line tickets, backstage access, tickets to private, fan club-only concerts, and BTS gems... until it faded away in 2006.
Today, it's easy to understate how forward-thinking and Very Online this move by Bowie actually was. BowieNet was a little before my time but I always marvel at its existence. I'd kill to go back in time and chat to Sailor online.

Who remembers BowieNet? | https://bi.org/en/famous/david-bowie #BiFacts
Artists like Duchamp were so prescient here – the idea that the piece of work is not finished until the audience comes to it and adds their own interpretation, and what the piece of art is about is the grey space in the middle. That grey space in the middle is what the 21st century is going to be all about.
