The Platform Sandbox software questions the concept of creativity in “the era of content,” dictated, according to Damjan Jovanovic, by the infinite volume of objects, images, and knowledge available online. The user selects objects and images from online archives, plays with reconfigurations in the form of screenshots, video recordings of workflow, and applications. Through strategies of perturbation and play, Platform Sandbox positions itself as a critical alternative to the “software regime,” challenging the omnipotence of software in creative processes.
