artig.net
artig.net offers an interactive platform for artists who want to present
their work within this artpool and/or participate actively in the further
development of the artpool. As far as possible a separation in administrative and artistic branch
will be avoided. Such, the navigation scheme and the internal contributions
(for instance a virtual art magazine) will be works of art. artig.net will feature all forms of artistic expression. The main focus
will nonetheless be in artistic work, which is being developed for the
Internet. Thus young Internet artists will be given a forum to present
their work but at the same time current art in the net will be featured. The meeting of diverse realms of art and theory shall lead to a mutual
fertilization. Experimental artistic endeavors shall be encouraged. artig.net will be designed as an interactive labyrinth. The user enters
a terra incognita in which he or she has to engage into a playful interaction. The exploration of the virtual spaces of artig.net develops into a
discovery journey to the possibilities of the medium Internet. In the
control centers tools for the further development of the system are
being provided. artig.net will also be a platform for discourse and exchange: Forums
and Chats will supplement the platform. The concept was realized with the opening of the Web portal incognita.at
in 2002. . artig. net has been developed with the support of the MEDIA Programm
of the European Union.
