Abstract:
Institutional Presentation Statement
New media applications are created in software houses and by individual digital designers and artists; new media are criticized largely by academics in Art History, English, Communications, and other humanities departments in universities. What is the relationship between their critical theories and the design of new media? Can such cultural and historical perspectives ever hope to effect practice in substantive ways?
