Were you one of the lucky ones to get hold of a Keith Tyson print at midday today?

Turner Prize winning artist Keith Tyson today gave away a free downloadable print of his work to the first 5,000 people to log onto his website after 12.00pm. An interesting idea from an artist whose work "deals with the interconnectedness of things and the interdependency of systems".

Unfortunately The Guardian's help in advertising this event left the server overworked as it was swamped shortly after midday, leaving many web hunters unhappy as the link failed to work and their free print never materialised. Read their coverage of the story here.

Nevertheless, it's interesting to see an artist of Keith Tyson's renown utilising the Internet as an artistic forum.
