> > INTERACTION > Interactive Systems
> > The Image category covers artistic productions focusing on human
> > interaction with and through digital media. Interactive systems consist
of
> > several components which combine to create an artwork that can be
> > experienced individually or collectively and whose outcome is relatively
> > open and dependent on the recipient's participation. These can be
locally
> > based systems like installations or performances, as well as open,
> > networked processes or action. The evaluation of these works hinges on
> > their reflection of current social and cultural conditions and on the
> > choice of adequate media and components which articulate the intention
of
> > the project.
> >
> > IMAGE > linear and non-linear moving images
> > The category Image includes works that deal with the aesthetics of
moving
> > images and that reflect the role of the image in the age of digital,
> > interactive and network media. Such works can deal with the
transformation
> > of visual languages and the emerging, non-linear forms of narration, as
> > well as with innovative forms of presentation and reception and with the
> > combination of images with sounds and other forms of artistic
expression.
> > Going beyond the by now classical video format, the Image category also
> > covers projects in areas like video performance, Internet movie or
> > interactive story telling.
> >
> > SOFTWARE > Generative Art
> > The Software category includes projects whose main artistic material is
> > program code, or which deal with the cultural understanding of Software.
> > Thus, software is not understood as a functional tool serving the 'real'
> > artistic work, but as a generative means for the creation of machinic
and
> > social processes. Software art can be the result of an autonomous and
> > formal creative practice, but it can also refer the cultural and social
> > meaning of software, or reflect on existing software through strategies
> > like collage or critique.
