Making, Exhibiting and Marketing for Artists on the Internet

(Artists in Virtual Spaces)

Making, Exhibiting and Marketing for Artists on the Internet (Artists in Virtual Spaces) focuses on the technical, aesthetic, and critical skills integral to the creation and interpretation of internet art. Through the indivdual artists websites online galleries, publications and other media types we will examine issues surrounding Internet culture: its history, evolution, and impact on art, society. Central to this study will be the identification of trends, issues, and key concepts critical to our understanding of an ever evolving contemporary net work centric culture.

The course will focus on design strategies, tools and applications used in website production. We will apply this technique to the creation of new forms that are net-specific, as well as those that bridge virtual and physical space. Students are expected to produce net projects, a home page/on-line portfolio, independently research and critique net artworks, engage in class disccussion and participation in the online forum in which they will collaboratively record their reflections on the issues presented.
