Digital art practitioners work under the constant threat of a
medium - the digital - that objectifies the self and depersonalises
artistic identities. If digital technology is a pharmakon in that
it can be either cure or poison, with regard to digital art
practices the digital may have in fact worked as a placebo that has
allowed us to push back the date in which the crisis between
digital and art will be given serious thought. This book is hence
concerned with an analysis of such a relationship and proposes
their rethinking in terms of an ethico-phenomenological practice
informed by an in-depth understanding of the digital medium.
Giuseppe Torre engages with underground cultures such as Free and
Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) and its ties with art discourse.
The discussion is informed by various philosophical discourses and
media theories, with a focus on how such ideas connect back to the
existing literature in performance studies. Replete with examples
of artwork and practices, this book will be of great interest to
students and scholars of theatre and performance studies, art and
technology.
