Syndicate: [Fwd: The WebArt manifesto] 

on and on and on we go ...
--- Begin Message --- 
In recent years some artists involved in the Internet have started to
explore the possibilities of the WWW as an artistic medium in its own
right. During 1998 several R2001 artists have made a major contribution
to this movement, and have acted collectively to make their work
available both online through the R2001 website, and at public
exhibitions in New York. This has led to considerable debate and
discussion as to the nature and definition of the new medium, and our
conclusions are formulated as a manifesto that encompasses:
i) the establishment of a formal nomenclature for a new medium and
artform;
ii) a definition of that new medium and artform;
iii) a rationale for the nomenclature and definition.
