Main Article Content
The review of the last 25 years of Media Art leads Michael Naimark to recall how it used to be for artists working in New Media, spending most of their time figuring out how to get the equipment and support they needed for their projects. He compares it with today, when technologies have become economical enough for many people to get their own equipment and create their own laboratories; and this new situation is also bringing the artist a kind of greater freedom for their ideas and concepts. Naimark also speaks of the Internet, how it is making it easy for people to show their work all over the world for little money and how it has brought a new way of communication, expression and the opportunity of surprise again.
In more than 25 years of art experience, Michael Naimark has worked on new media and interactivity, psychophysics and cognition, immersive virtual environments.
