Digital art is art
created on a computer in digital (that is, binary) form.
The term is usually reserved for art that has been
non-trivially modified by the computer. Genres of digital
art are, among others, hyperfictions, animations,
mapping, collaborative and interactive projects. Digital
art questions traditional conventions in art. Aesthetic
aspects of digital art are such as: authorship,
interactivity, spectacle, collage, ready-made, automatic
text generation, multimediality, transmediality,
formalism.
