Description & Coverage
Description:

Emerging new technologies such as digital media have helped artists to position art into the everyday lives and activities of the public. These new virtual spaces allow artists to utilize a more participatory experience with their audience.

Digital Media and Technologies for Virtual Artistic Spaces brings together a variety of artistic practices in virtual spaces and the interest in variable media and online platforms for creative interplay. Presenting frameworks and examples of current practices, this book is useful for artists, theorists, curators as well as researchers working with new technologies, social media platforms and digital culture.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • 3D Surface Computing
  • Data-Objects
  • Digital and Material Culture
  • Digital Media
  • Exhibition and Viewer Participation
  • Multi-User Virtual Environments
  • Social Art Practice
Reviews & Statements

Eighteen academics and researchers from the UK, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Turkey, and Australia contribute 16 chapters providing artists, theorists, curators, and researchers with relevant theoretical frameworks and examples of current practice in the area of variable media and virtual spaces. The text brings together the work of panel speakers from conferences held by the international non-profit organization, ISEA (Inter Society of the Electronic Arts), in 2009 and 2011. A sampling of topics: the re-materialization of the art object, sharing the attributes and properties of digital and material culture to creatively interpret complex information, para-formalistic discourse and virtual space in film, exploring liminality from an anthropological perspective, exploring boundaries between digital and material culture, and the metaplastic cyber opencode art.
