The Fundamentals of Digital Art

This title offers an introduction to the key elements of the digital art areas and is aimed at first year undergraduate students studying digital art and design, and those students of visual art subjects with an interest in digital media. The book provides an overview of digital art and offers careful explanations of physical computing, using data sources, programming, networks for artists and experimental practices in digital art. The text is accompanied by extensive illustrations, ranging from work by recognised practitioners in the field to current student work from undergraduate programmes. It also includes practical clear workshop diagrams designed to help students develop the confidence to work with the approaches covered in the book themselves.
