Critical Arts, the Journal of South-North Cultural and Media Studies: Participation, Art and Digital Culture
Edited by Keyan G. Tomaselli, Vol. 32 No. 3/2018, Routledge / University of South Africa Press, 2018, ISSN: 0256-0046
Edited by Professor Keyan G. Tomaselli, Critical Arts, the Journal of South-North Cultural and Media Studies, recently published its Special Issue: Participation, Art and Digital Culture. The theme issue includes articles that explore art practices which specifically engage with participation, interaction, technology and digital media. Participatory art has become an umbrella term for a broad range of artistic practices that focus on the importance of participation, interaction, social networks and processes as a crucial part of art projects, and that move away from an exclusive focus on clearly defined and delineated art products. At the same time, the notion of participation in the arts is inevitably influenced by the increasing ubiquity of digital culture in which 'participation' is a central feature.
In this special issue, papers from researchers, theorists and artists critically examine how technology, media and networks open up new avenues to develop practices that examine space and locality, community and communication, interaction and intimacy, proximity and distance, creation and co-creation.
