The iconoclasm of technological realism: the research behind “Unpainted Undrawn” and “Arnulf Rainer for Digital Performers” (original) (raw)

The research explores the interplay between digital technology and representation through the lens of two art projects: "Unpainted Undrawn" and "Arnulf Rainer for Digital Performers." It argues that the materiality of electronic media profoundly influences aesthetic perception and understanding of digital images. By presenting cracked screens within traditional frames, the projects emphasize the inherent value of technological imperfections, challenging conventional notions of representation and elevating technological aesthetics to an art form.
