“ Finally, there was light instead of the usual crepuscular atmosphere in the exhibition space. I don't understand why media art exhibitions are so desperate to have you nose-dive into darkness and gloominess. ”
— Japan Media Arts festival - The Art Division - we make money not art

Because it makes the gadget-shit look more serious than it is, of course!

“

I wonder what Dadaists would have made of the internet. It's interesting that, as far as I am aware, no contemporary artist has yet harnessed this extraordinary technology to make a significant artwork. Of course, maybe I'm wrong and am missing something great - do you know of any net-based art works that are worth a look?

Maybe you have made one (an artwork made specifically for the medium, as opposed to a film such as the one above, which uses the net only as a means of dissemination)?

If you, like me, can't find any net-based art of note, why do you think that is? Why, when there's been such a boom in contemporary art around the world, has no artist made the medium of the web his or her canvas? And if someone were to use the net as a medium, as opposed to making an image, or a video, or even an interactive Flash animation, what would the resulting art look, or sound, or feel like?

NEW MEDIA ART MUST DIE

The Pizza Video from the comments is 20 times better than the featured artwork. New Media Artists, listen to me: NEVER TRY TO IMPOSE THE RIDICULOUS NON-CONTEXT OF YOUR MEDIUM OF CHOICE ON ART TRADITIONS! INTERNET SEARCH ISN'T ART JUST BECAUSE IT'S ON 3 FUCKING GOLD PLATED LCD SCREENS!

“ Live coding is a new direction in electronic music and video, and is starting to get somewhere interesting. Live coders expose and rewire the innards of software while it generates improvised music and/or visuals. All code manipulation is projected for your pleasure. ”

Livecoding is so fucking boring. I just had to say it.
