This exhibition brings together a network of artists inspired by scientific ideas and technologies. It tells a series of loosely connected stories about the early innovators of electronic art, from the 1950s to the widespread adoption of the internet in the early 1990s. Collaborating internationally, they experimented with cutting-edge media and hybrid methods to expand their collective creative horizons. Many believed technology should be a communal resource, working together to steer its development towards creative and social uses.
