A look at the benefits of having art displayed on the internet.
This paper discusses the benefits of having art created and shown on the Internet in addition to the way it is usually produced. The paper argues that although the Internet changes the way art is created and viewed, it is not a signal for the death of anything, but it creates a new world of self-expression. The paper addresses the exposure every artist can have, the freedom there is for the viewer and how it frees artists’ resources.
Once upon a time, stories were told with pictures painted on rocks and cave walls with berry juice, blood and urine. The tales they told were of storms, people and the hunt. When language was developed, stories became verbal but the visual form of the story did not disappear. With the invention of paper and then the printing press, the story shape-shifted once more, but again the previous forms of the way the human story was expressed: painted on rock and told orally were not done away with in fact they still exist today.
The human story is expressed in many forms, using many mediums. As technologies develop, art adapts to embrace the new medium but not at the sacrifice of the old forms.”
