Talk:Cyberarts

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

is cyberarts synonymous to generative art?

[edit] cyberarts discussion

Cyberart is a term for art that is made for cyberspace. Cyberspace is the information space created by computers hooked to a network. The term comes from a William Gibson novel (I forget which one). Generative art is essentially geometric or sound patterns created by algorythms. It doesn't really have anything to do with cyberspace. The term cyberarts is already going out of fashion as is internet art, web art, browser art and new media art. Of all the terms that stick or are lasting, media art, new media art, digital art and net art tend to be the best.
