Grading the Lebanese Constitution is a web-based project by Ricardo Mbarkho where people can make anonymous grading for any and every article of the actual Lebanese Constitution. An Overall Average Grade is constantly displayed and updated. This grading centered project with its mass evaluation process implies different ways of reading the numbers and graphs of all the statistical results. It’s a work that deals with data interpretation to offer multiple analysis levels relative to our emotional and rational attitude toward the Constitution.

The artist assigns the domain name of the artwork to the buyer, registering the domain name as well as the space of the hosting of the artwork in the name of the latter. In this way, the collector will have his name in the register of the domain name, which will publicly give him the status of « Owner ». The name of the acquirer is thus “pasted” to any diffusion of the work.
