Media Art Histories
ed. Oliver Grau, MIT Press 2007
Digital art has become a major contemporary art form, but it has yet to achieve acceptance from mainstream cultural institutions; it is rarely collected, and seldom included in the study of art history or other academic disciplines. In MediaArtHistories, leading scholars seek to change this. They take a wider view of media art, placing it against the backdrop of art history.
Contributors trace the evolution of digital art, from thirteenth century Islamic mechanical devices and eighteenth century phantasmagoria, magic lanterns, and other multimedia illusions, to Marcel Duchamp's inventions and 1960s Kinetic and Op Art. They reexamine and redefine key media art theory terms--machine, media, exhibition--and consider the blurred dividing lines between art products and consumer products and between art images and science images. Finally, MediaArtHistories offers an approach for an interdisciplinary, expanded image science, which needs the "trained eye" of art history...website |

by Thomas de Zengotita

We are mediated to the nth degree. iPod, Therefore I Am might have been well served by a closer look at the ideas beneath the surface, whereas the ideas of Mediated come so thick and fast that sometimes the good ones get lost along the way. Thomas de Zengotita believes that the media influences so many human experiences that it is hard to be certain whether something is real (as in directly lived) or transmuted through the distorting lens of the mass media...website |
