Digital creativity

the long version

"At one time a computer might have seemed an unlikely tool for artistic creativity. Now artists from all areas - dancers and sculptors, musicians and poets - are moving to the digital world in ever-increasing numbers. Some are using technology to augment existing work, some to extend their art into different areas, while others are using the new digital tools to create entirely new forms of art. This book looks at how digital creativity has evolved. It examines the tools available, gives examples of a range of artistic work currently being produced, and questions the cultural implications of such digital creativity." -- Back cover.
