E-volution of New Media

Guest editor Kathy Cleland. With computers now regarded as just another tool for artists, digital art is becoming accepted as a medium for art.

Less understood is that the internet is potentially a powerful new way of showing art.Web-based art, soundworks, and writing are all explored as well as hybrid forms using imaging tools developed for microbiology, or performance works involving machines and digital images.

The blurring of art and popular culture is a recurring theme. The difference between traditional and digital drawing is explored.
