20 GOTO 10

20 GOTO 10 was an art gallery founded by Christopher Abad in San Francisco, California, United States. Its name is a reference to the traditional looping 'Hello world' program written by beginner programmers.[1] It featured both traditional and "hacker" art, with an emphasis on technology as art, or exhibits which make the potentially criminal or unethical aspects of computer security accessible to the public.[2][3]

It received more prominent vlog,[4] blog,[5][6][7] and print news coverage[8] when Kevin Olson displayed the first ever American showing of ANSI art in a physical art gallery. Jason Scott Sadofsky, creator of the BBS Documentary expressed interest[9] in the custom LCD scrollers based on a Parallax chipset with a custom ANSI scroller to VGA output written in SPIN made solely for the ANSI gallery show.[10]

The gallery was located at 679 Geary St. in San Francisco, and was defunct at this location as of Summer 2012.[8]
