Preface
There is a growing interest in media
art as cutting-edge technology penetrates into various sectors of
society. In culture and art, in particular, the possibility of new
technology creating new expression in the "moderne" context
has attracted much attention of not only artists but also experts
in artistic theory and aesthetics. Facilities which exclusively display
media art are springing up on a global scale, examples being Japan's
NTT InterCommunication Center (ICC) and Germany's Art & Media
Technology Center (ZKM). The time has come in which media art is being
recognized as a branch of modern art and its social role has to be
explored.
We are holding lectures and a symposium on media art by German and
Japanese experts. This will provide a golden opportunity to study
the theory of media art, media art as related to society and its potential,
and the future of media art.
