Moma = Online Projects

Museum sponsored online projects and web installation created to explore new art forms that exist only on the Web. These commissioned online projects explore new forms of storytelling — taking a fresh look at what constitutes an exhibition — within the unique space of the personal computer screen. The one on one with the audience makes these projects both personal and having a different type of impact that a typical installation in a physical space. Shown here: by Peter Halley, Exploding Cell interactive project.

Playgrounds

Playground, as you could mean by looking at it and interpreting the word as it is, and this has to be said, is not just a virtual back flash into the playroom in which you've been spending hours building towers with wooden bricks or something called lego back in the old times, it is much more a psycho-social experience (I've just invented this to make it sound more dramatic, so don't blame for using non existing expressions).

Play-Create by Daniel Brown

Play-Create is an interactive media initiative that sees a vision of publishing entertainment multimedia in the same way that we consume music, film and other formats. Born out of a principle that computer-game technology need not just pander to superficial violent and hyper-active pursuits, Play-Create poses the hypothetical questions: What is the interactive equivalents of classical music? What is to a plasma screen what paint is to a canvas?
