2008 - INFOAESTHETICS MANIFESTO - Lev Manovich

Texto

Twenty first century has arrived. What comes after modernism, postmodernism, and new media? Welcome to INFO-AESTHETICS.

INFO-AESTHETICS is not only the aesthetics of data.

INFO-AESTHETICS is the new culture of INFORMATION society.

INFO-AESTHETICS is already here. Do you see it? A computer: Never before a single machine was an engine of economy --

AND the main tool for representation. INFOAESTHETICS needs to reflect this duality.

How can we use new media to represent human experience

in INFORMATION society in new ways? Discover INFOAESTHETICS.

In the beginning of the 20th century modernist artists created new forms, new aesthetics,new representational techniques, and new symbols of industrial society. We need to do the same for INFORMATION society.

Join INFO-AESTHETICS.
