[Sigvis-l] Oliver Grau Interview

[Pete J. Otis]

"The onslaught of the new media also means that we must hurry. For before 
we have helped to establish this art in public awareness, it threatens to 
be lost because of its short-lived storage media. Thus, we are not only 
contributing to research on digital art, we also hope to pave the way for 
digital art into museum collections and thus secure its future."


A new analysis of virtual images and their history from the perspective of 
art and media history is presented in Grau's new book "Virtual Art: From 
Illusion to Immersion."  A recommendable interview by presented by the 
Switch Journal.
