Response to Rachel Greene – Mingyue Deng

It is very interesting to know the history of Internet Art and how these artists started pouring their energy into making art online. It seems that the artists need to know a lot of knowledge, not only in the art field but also in the programming field to be able to build these internet arts.

For this article, I have many questions to ask. In the article, Greene gave many examples of successful internet art in the 1980s and 1990s. However, I am wondering about how internet art transformed today since the technology is better and the programming languages evolved. And how people’s expectations when viewing internet art changed that could affect how artists are doing the artworks.

I found this article which is very interesting. The exhibit contains the entire history from 1989 to today’s internet art and how they transformed as digital media grew.
