WellWellWell (a riff on //www.) is Marisa Olson's newest performative project to consider the nature of life in the postinternet era. Deploying both internet-based videos & live motivational lectures, Olson has crafted an alterego persona resembling an online meditation guru with a cult following as addicted to her as they are to the internet itself. The guru's videos and lectures guide followers through creative visualization exercises, relaxation techniques, and heartfelt conversations about the way that digital technologies simultaneously stress us out and provide new tools for rebooting. WellWellWell is inspired by the contemporary wellness craze, but rooted in the historical relationship between cyberculture & counterculture, and continues Olson's ongoing interests in the history of technology.
