- Summary:
- When using digital technologies, many types of dysfunction can occur, ranging from hardware malfunctions to software errors and human ineptitude. Many new media artworks employ various strategies of dysfunctionality in order to explore issues of power within societies and culture. Robert W. Sweeny examines how digital artists have embraced the concept of the error or glitch as a form for freedom-imperfection or dysfunction can be an integral element of the project. In this book, he offers practical models and ideas for how artists and educators can incorporate digital technologies and integrate discussions of decentralized models of artistic production.
