This is where you can check out some of my digital art and net.art projects.
What is digital art? I think that digital art is art thats lost it's material body, this is what has made it so much different then previous forms of art. This makes art more available for others to access. It also opens producing art as a community. Digital art is important because it is a newer type of media and is helping communities have access to art making tools. I am taking this class because I want to learn more about what is considered digital art and different forms of digital art. I also want to learn more about digital art so that I will be able to produce my own works.
What is net.art? Net.Art appears as I see it at this moment is a different way to communicate with people in an artistic way. It is something that is constantly changing and is more about how we take in the message and the experience behind that message rather than then delivering that message in a very uniform esthetically pleasing way. It’s more about our different senses then just the sense of sight.

Both my Digital Art and Net.Art focus on our country and diffrent issues that we are currently facing. The intent of these projects are to deliver visuals and information that bring awarness to these issues. The digital art piece brings awarness about the war that we are curently fighting. The project is an image that tells you that you should speak up if you have an issue with something, while also in the image there is multiple images that mak eup this street scene that has soldiers, a plane, a mouth, and a burning car. The Mouth is what tells us to speak up. The soldiers, plane, and the burning car that are in the middle of the black and white street shows us that we are currently in a war and that it is a huge issue. The reason for them to be in the street is so that it allmost brings the problem to our home instead of over in Iraq which tells us that this war effects us even though it might be across sea's. My Net.Art project is multiple images of current issues that we face. When you click on the images it brings you to somewhere on the internet that has a way that you can help with this current issue. I created this so that it is right to the point and that people have a visual of the issues so that the message....
...is deliverd much stronger then just reading about what issues we are currently facing. View my Net.Art Final HERE.
