Art is a Way of Seeing

The cyber objects of art I would sell would be about 900 x 1440 to 1700 x 2338 pixels (full screen), the videos are 640 x 480 (partial screen). This still from VDO Card 08 (above) is about the size of the images in http://netartscrolls.blogspot.com/, a good sample of recent work.

Craft Versus Art

I was taught art by abstract expressionists; I see pinholes and dust as paint drips and thumbprints. The files are high enough resolution for you to correct if you learned art with a post photo editing software aesthetic. Just remember, I own the rights to the work.

Collecting Digital Art

Do you ever feel like an agoraphobic trapped between a cyclone and the universe? I am an artist, not a gallerist.

Static and Nonstatic Art

Before the World Wide Web I did video, sculpture, painting, drawing and graphics.

Art and Tech

The Internet supports at least two art formats: still images and videos. If a virtual reality program could be used for cyber sculpture that would make three.

Green or Power Failure Proof

You could use your old computer to house your art collection as long as it has a slide show program and a media player or you could print the .jpgs for a physical portfolio.

Multiple or Unique Creation

If I sell a work as a limited edition in my mind it's a "print" and a unique image file would be a digital "painting".

Stills

I am trying to find out how much material is needed to accurately represent the work so as to have a no return policy. And yet what is the sense of buying it if you have already seen it in its entirety? I am trying to strike a balance between the two.

Cyber Video Art Gallery

I like longer clips because it takes a couple of minutes to adjust to a different outlook. Today's technology handles a one minute clip, tops, uploaded to the Internet using dial-up and takes under an hour to do it. I never tried to download a clip but I do not imagine it would be any faster. I am experimenting with the possibility of a cyber open studio. To sell a digital video one could upload stills and a segment; then burn the clip to CD and physically mail it to the buyer.

Digital Video Art Gallery

Would you buy digital video art on CD?
2 minutes?
5 minutes?
20 minutes?
