Internet Dweller: jshmha.one.whkbrb

The name on each Internet Dweller is supposed to resemble a domain name. The initials in the name represent names of people Paik knew. In my research I have not found whose initials they are.

Internet Dweller: efpn.two.cvaph

The writeup about the piece in "The Electronic Super Highway Travels with Nam June Paik" catalog says, "Paik created the Internet Dwellers as masks, each representing a different, remote society, all linked by the Internet: a network of networks, linking virtually everyone, anywhere, with access to a computer."
