This is a great text from a book called "Post-Internet" by Gene McHugh.

Easy to read. Covers art in the post-internet society and how painting can relate to computers.

Two thumbs up.

  2. Thanks Carla, so articulate, my favourite part "It’s not that all contemporary artists must right now start making hypertext poetry and cat memes, but rather that, somewhere in the basic conceptual framework of the work, an understanding of what the Internet is doing to their work—how it distributes the work, how it devalues the work, revalues it—must be acknowledged in the way that one would acknowledge, say, the market.
