Joan Heemskerk and Dirk Paesmans have worked together on the Net under the name "JODI" for over five years. JODI's %Untitled Game-a reconfiguration of the source code for "Wolfenstein"-distorts the rules of engagement associated with straightforward game-play. While being attacked by an on-screen graphic that appears to be half wolf and half bright yellow cube, we are prompted to examine our expectations and the way we inadvertently mold a subservient, service driven Net.

JODI is the Web site that makes you wonder if your computer is broken.
