Description
Reframing Consciousness: Art, Mind and Technology by Roy Ascott explores the intersection of art, science, and technology. Over sixty respected theorists and practitioners contribute to this diverse exploration of art and consciousness, examining four key elements: Mind, Body, Art, and Values. The book delves into familiar territories such as interactive media and artificial life, combining them with new ideas about creativity, authorship, the body, and personal identity. It also considers ancient concepts alongside cutting-edge perspectives, making it a unique investigation of the paradigmatic changes currently affecting art in collaboration with science and technology. This collection brings together a wide range of approaches to understanding the relationship between art, consciousness, and the world around us.
