"L'appellation "Art des nouveaux médias" recouvre les oeuvres d'art qui impliquent ou ont trait aux technologies inventées ou rendues accessibles depuis la fin du 20e siècle. Des termes comme "Art des nouveaux médias", "Art numérique", "Art assisté par ordinateur", "Art et multimédia" et "Art interactif" sont souvent employés sans distinction. Le présent ouvrage définit l'Art des nouveaux médias à la fois comme un mouvement d'art international et une série de pratiques artistiques faisant usage des technologies émergentes pour en explorer le potentiel culturel, politique et esthétique. Les genres ici représentés incluent notamment l'Art sur la Toile, l'Art logiciel, des jeux vidéos conçus par des artistes, des projets médias in situ, des narrations interactives ainsi que des installations multimédias et des performances.

Art in the age of digital communication Artists have always been early adopters of emerging media technologies, from Albrecht D?rer and his use of the printing press in the 16th century to Nam June Paik's experiments with video in the 1960s. In 1994, the advent of the Internet as a popular medium catalyzed a global art movement that began to explore the cultural, social, and aesthetic possibilities of such new communication technologies as the Web, video surveillance cameras, wireless phones, hand-held computers, and GPS devices. This book addresses New Media art as a specific art historical movement, focusing not only on technologies and forms but also on thematic content and conceptual strategies. New Media art often involves appropriation, collaboration, and the free sharing of ideas and expressions, and frequently addresses the political ramifications of technology around issues of identity, commercialization, privacy, and the public domain. Many New Media artists are profoundly aware of their art historical antecedents, making reference to Dada, Pop Art, Conceptual art, Performance art, and Fluxus.
