Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)

Showcases the critical and theoretical approaches in this fast-moving discipline
Explores the history and evolution of digital art; its aesthetics and politics; as well as its often turbulent relationships with established institutions
Provides a platform for the most influential voices shaping the current discourse surrounding digital art, combining fresh, emerging perspectives with the nuanced insights of leading theorists
Tackles digital art’s primary practical challenges – how to present, document, and preserve pieces that could be erased forever by rapidly accelerating technological obsolescence
Up-to-date, forward-looking, and critically reflective, this authoritative new collection is informed throughout by a deep appreciation of the technical intricacies of digital art
