Amit Sood and Art Project.

Just recently while perusing the talks a plenty at TED TALKS I came across Amid Sood. With the support of Google and Museums he has created an amazing tool through which an individual can get up close and personal with masterpieces. 

 

What an amazing collaboration between the world of art & history and the internet & the present. It is with projects like these that the shared experience of art and the opportunity of the Internet collide with spectacular results. Head to the Art Project site, explore and excite yourself. Even become your own curator.

Topic Introduction.

It goes with out saying that the Internet has become an integral part of daily life to the masses. I believe it is important to remind ourselves that what society can potentially gain from this, lies in the individual and not just the technology. Driven by an awareness of how important shared space and shared experience is to both the individual and society, I hope to discover and share relationships between the Arts, its culture and the Internet.

The Arts, in all their forms, have been ever present in questioning and contextualising the world around us. This blog is aimed at exploring the relationships and practices between society, the Internet and the Arts…

The scrolling contextualisation of ideas and practices surrounding and connecting Art, Culture and the Internet. A creative exploration between the importance of Shared space and Shared experience in contemporary society.
