"Filter is fully based on the emotions that I experienced in the
beginning of
2006 when I woke up one night and found my son unconscious on the floor.
A couple of minutes passed by until I could bring him back.
The fear and desperation I felt during this time is what the film is all
about."

Article in Digimag
by Valentina Tanni. (Italian only)
"Weberg’s work is resolutely anti-collectable (which sets
him at odds with increasing numbers of film and video artists)
in the literal destruction of the idea of the ‘precious original’."
"It’s easy to understand why people are getting excited about
this. It appears to be fulfilling long-promised claims
about ‘the real nature of the Net’ to ‘act as a forum
for collective memory and imagination practiced by different
groups in different configurations in extended real-time’." Danni Zuvela
from the article Some notes on the network published in the Australian
contemporary art publication Machine
issue 2.4 2007
"This is a bold and interesting move on the part of the film-maker,
putting trust in the work and the power of those sharing
files via peer to peer networks such as BitTorrent.
It is at once a meditation on the ephemeral nature of art, and a blind
leap of faith." Michael Pick
"So the guy really is a true "P2P artist."
His artwork lives and dies according to the whims and desires of the P2P
community,
Who knew that we had our very own art gallery in the wild-west that is
P2P.
While we weren't looking somebody hung a painting over the saloon piano
and it is now slowly being noticed for what it means and represents." Jon Newton
from the article"BitTorrent Gets Artsy"
