Andreas Broegger: "Software Art - an introduction"

Art and code, software as art, software art. The combo of art and software, or software art, is widely discussed these days. The first software art competition was held at the Transmediale festival in Berlin 2001 (www.transmediale.de) and the term has spread to many other places and events. In 2003 the software art festival Read_me was held in Helsinki (www.m-cult.org/read_me) and in Moscow the year before. Software was also the topic of the Ars Electronica festival 2003 (www.aec.at) as well as the topic of a conference held by Electrohype (www.electrohype.org) in Malmoe 2002.

We take a closer look at the phenomenon known to some as software art. Since September 2003 we have being presenting a series of interviews with various players related to this new category. In the near future we will be presenting more.

The introductory article is written by Andreas Broegger - Ph.D. student at University of Copenhagen in the field of digital art forms. In this article Broegger gives us his angle on software art. Broegger is an important theorist in the area in Denmark and has previously been the main editor of Afsnit P's On Off (www.afnitp.dk/onoff).
