Tate Publishing, ISBN 1-85437-345-5 For several years, the net art has been a phenomenon fully enjoyed only by a small circle of initiates, most of which were themselves part or share in his creation and dissemination. The subsequent impact with the world and with the contemporary art market has generated a series of mixed reactions, but it had the merit of expanding the critical panorama to broader approaches that have recombined unlike the theoretical trajectories suggested dall'apparto of works produced up to that moment. In 'Internet Art' analysis of the phenomenon of art made with network protocols is made by a scholar outside the scene, and despite having a cut informative, is invaluable for the rigor with which it was conducted and to be immune from inevitable partiality in which easily falls those involved firsthand. Pulling out of the atavistic diatribes on the names (net art, net art, net art …), the author goes through the economic, political and social network, lit by the same works that effectively summarize the moments of passage. A useful historical development and on time, which gives room for many voices of artists and critics, and enriched by the analysis of the available techniques (hypertext fiction, fake, interface recombination, unveiling the mechanisms of control, remixing of material drawn from the search engines , etc.. etc..) is accessible and accurate.
