Selbo worked as the interface director for äda'web, the Walker Art Center's "pioneering Web site of online art curated by Benjamin Weil" from 1994 to 1998.[4] In an essay written in September 1998, Selbo described äda'web as "a research and development platform, a digital foundry, and a journey" in which "artists are invited to experiment with and reflect upon the web as a medium, and as a means of distribution for their work."[5]
Besides digital media, Selbo has also worked with photographic sculpture. She "adapted text and images from commercial sources, setting up situations that are loaded, provocative, and funny, often putting issues of seduction and desire into play. She alludes to obsessive consumption of media imagery, and speaks with the subtle innuendoes of advertising."[6]

Vertical Blanking Interval, 1996 — Selbo's project for äda'web, launched in December 1996. The title describes "the largely untapped portion of the video spectrum that is part of any television signal. This portion of the signal is where high speed internet access will soon be transmitted."[6]
