Unfold, surf, drift -- in this insightful book, Ceci Moss presents Internet art in an expanded frame, returning to Jean-Francois Lyotard's important 1985 exhibition Les Immateriaux in Paris, and continuing on through contemporary artists responding to the Internet. Recommended reading for anyone interested in twenty-first-century aesthetics and culture. * Alexander R. Galloway, Professor of Media, Culture, and Communication, New York University, USA * What does art do in an information-driven culture? Moreover, how does information-driven art enable us to take note of the changes in our culture? This book draws a line under competing theories of the place of art, post-internet, that have been jostling for space since pre-internet days, and reminds us - simply and urgently - that art can and does (or can even choose not to). Ceci Moss has written a clear-eyed conversational treatise that joins philosophies of technology and recent histories of information-driven art and her efforts will help any student or practitioner navigate our fluid media landscape. I've always wanted a book that brought Simondon, Lyotard, Laric, and LOL cats together, and now I've got one. * Sarah Cook, Curator and Professor of Museum Studies, University of Glasgow, UK *
