Vuk Cosic
Slovenian Vuk Cosic was the man that (by accident) came across the word net.art in an indecipherable e-mail he received back in 1995. The only thing he could read in the mail was the word net.art and after that he started using the word in newsgroups etc.
äda’web
äda’web was one of the first net.art sites back in the mid 1990’s, but became inactive in 1998. The site is still available and contains really super net.art.
Rhizome
Rhizome is an essential net art site. It offers art, articles, book reviews, and lots of other things. It also has a pile of mailing lists with, among others, one that sends you a tip each day about net art.
Superbad.com
Superbad was one of the net.art works exhibited at the Whitney’s Biennial 2000. The site is full of funny stories, weird features and lots of other things. The man behind it all (Ben Benjamin is his name) often adds an extra front page, so this is a site you should return |
