A selection of participative art on-line by Roberta Bosco and Stefano
Caldana
Digital Jam (http://www.artfutura.org/2001/proyectosdigitaljami.htm) is a
selection of 11 projects conceived for the Internet that shows different
tendencies of artistic investigation, focused on the collaborative aspect of
the creative process on-line in the course of the last 7 years.

"We are not in favour of encyclopaedic selections, so we'd rather risk
choosing a series of projects which, in our opinion, shows the numerous
tendencies in the field of artistic collaboration on-line.... Digital Jam
invites the observer/user to leave his/her passive role in order to take
part in first person in this creative jam session on the Internet".
