This paper presents a novel characterization of new media art together with an exploration of some key aspects of its practice: I propose that new media art’s defining characteristics are media appropriation and explicitation. With media appropriation I refer to the dialectal inscription into the art practice of the knowledge that allows for some particular technological production. I also propose that new media art’s language is constructed in part via the explicitation of certain aspects of more ‘traditional’ art, and that this explicitation allows for a construction of a new vocabulary. Examples of this are the explicitation of randomness, interaction, programming, or of the role that tools and instruments play, among others.

媒体拨款和公开

本文介绍了新媒体艺术的新颖特征，并探讨了其实践中的一些关键方面：我提出，新媒体艺术的定义特征是媒体挪用和展示。在媒体专用权方面，我将方言题词提到允许某些特定技术生产的知识的艺术实践中。我还建议，新媒体艺术的语言部分地是通过对更多“传统”艺术的某些方面的阐释来构建的，并且这种表达允许构建新的词汇表。这方面的例子是对随机性，交互性，编程或工具和工具所扮演的角色等的明确化。
