Abstract :
The future is now: the artist´s studio has been forever altered, wired, networked, and distributed. As of this writing, it has only been 22 years since the World Wide Web emerged as a mass medium, but in that relatively brief span of technological history, distances have collapsed, the divide between the local and the remote has blurred, and we are now living in the connected culture that Marshall McLuhan prophesied in the 1960s with his prediction of the global village.
