ARCHIVE OF DIGITAL ART

MISSION ::

As a pioneer in the field of Media Arts reserch, the ARCHIVE OF DIGITAL ART (ADA) has documented the rapidly evolving field of digital art since 1999. This research-oriented overview of works at the intersection of art, science and technology has been developed in cooperation with the international media artists, researchers and institutions as a collective project.

EXPANDED CONCEPT OF DOCUMENTATION ::

Since todays digital artworks are processual, ephemeral, interactive, multimedia-based, and fundamentally context dependent because of their different structure, they require a modified, or “expanded concept of documentation.” We ascribe high importannce to artisitic inventions like innovative interfaced, displays or software.
