Candi's Digital Divide Response


I find it interesting how digital art isn’t as big of a trend in contemporary are and is instead a specialized field of its own. Its kind of weird because new media is a constant in people’s lives. We are constantly using new digital technology and if art doesn’t use the same technology it ignores part of the human condition. In a quasi-hipster way, I do feel the same nostalgia for media that fell out of use years before I was born. Therefore, I can understand how artists are drawn to create with old media. At the same time, it’s weird that there isn’t a huge drive to use new media as well.
