Art Across Distances \u2022 New Modes of Communication<\/h3>\n

We begin a unit on Telematic Art<\/em>: networked systems that allow people in different locations (and potentially, at different times) to communicate or collaborate in a new way.<\/p>\n

We now consider interactive systems that place the participant\/guest\/user\/subject into conversation with other mind(s). In creating a communication system between multiple interlocutors, we establish a new interactivity: that between siblings, lovers, neighbors, strangers.<\/p>\n

As soon as there was an Internet, there was art on the Internet. Immediately there arose two approaches: creators who used the Internet as a new way of disseminating traditional media (photography, music, etc.) in online galleries; and creators of “Net.Art”, who made Internet-native<\/em> artworks whose forms intrinsically depended on the networked condition.<\/p>\n

While networked systems like Zoom, Minecraft and Google Docs are part of the fabric of everyday life, this hasn’t always been so. It’s worth stepping back and thinking about the use of networked telecommunications in media arts. As is often the case, some media artworks from the past presaged common tools today… and others represent intriguing dead-ends in the history of attempts to devise new modes of communication.<\/p>\n
