Look Ma, I'm a Multimedia Artist
WIRED News | Monday, June 19th 2000
<p>"For me the Net is so great because it bogged with traffic and plagued with unemployment, but it has its charms. The gracious central square is bordered by a massive cathedral and a cohesive complex of Spanish colonial buildings, all made of native white volcanic stone. A couple of blocks away, a gateway in a forbidding wall leads to a splendid convent that once housed hundreds of well-to-do nuns and their maids. he said, "and is at its core new, democratic, and non-hierarchical."</p>

Web Work: A HISTORY OF INTERNET ART
ArtForum | Monday, May 1st 2000
THE TERM "NET.ART" is less a coinage than an accident, the result of a software glitch that occurred in December 1995, when Slovenian artist Vuk Cosic opened an anonymous e-mail only to find it had been mangled in transmission. Amid a morass of alphanumeric gibberish, Cosic could make out just one legible term--"net.art"--which he began using to talk about online art and communications. Spreading like a virus among certain interconnected Internet communities, the term was quickly enlisted to describe a variety of everyday activities. Net.art stood for communications and graphics, e-mail, texts and images, referring to and merging into one another; it was artists, enthusiasts, and technoculture critics trading ideas, sustaining one another's interest through ongoing dialogue. Net.art meant online detournements, discourse instead of singular texts or images, defined more by links, e-mails, and exchanges than by any "optical" aesthetic. Whatever images of net.art projects grace these pages, beware that, seen out of their native HTML, out of their networked, social habitats, they are the net.art equivalents of animals in zoos.
