Blurring of Public and Private Space in New Media Art

Tags: 
Abstract (in English): 

This paper seeks to address the discourse of the blurring of public and private space in new media art, specifically in Mouchette.org and Life Sharing by Eva and Franco Matteos. Both pieces utilize an understanding of the social systems inherent in new media art as a set of relations that require the user to complete. This system, dependant upon the relations that the user, the artist and the artwork creates a discourse on the concept of public and private space that is predicated on the notions of interactivity.
