projects about 'borders'

Hi everybody,

I'm interested in internet- and/or computer-based art-projects to broach the issue of borders. Borders of states and/or 'access-borders' in the internet (could be ironically identical, see censorship in china).

Something similar to the notorious "BorderXing" (http://www.irational.org/borderxing/) by Bunting or the upcoming "Frontiers" (http://www.frontiers-game.com/) by goldextra-group.

It's so fascinating, that the mankind just keeps on creating or protecting borders, all over the time, and today, even in the internet. I like the way, how the projects above are trying to create attention on these borders and their nature, and wonder, if there are others…

Does anybody know some more projects about this topic?

Thank you very much!
Greetings, atreiju

you may want to look at the 2207 edition of the HTMlles festival. It included a number of projects on this topic.

'Mapping Humanity' is not computer based but its is about borders.
