Task 3 - Art of The Digital Age Review

The Book Art of the Digital Age takes an in depth look into the different practices of Digital art and the impact it has had on trational art styles in creating new branches such as Digital Animation, Virtual Reality and Digital art. The book author Bruce Wands is a key figure in the Digital age of art, studying and teaching for the past 20 years in the industry.

I enjoyed this title particularly the chapter on Digital imaging, the artwork shows a great variety of workss ranging from unique to really impressive. The artworks displayed from Charlse A. CSURI caught my eye particularly his piece HORSE PLAY, (a horse composed of ribbon-like threads that reflect and cast shadows) this work inspired to investigate Digital Imaging and left an impression on me.

Overall I found the book quite interesting it shows a great show a great range of works and showcases the industry greatly for anyone who is interested for that reason i'd recommend this book to any of those people. The only negative I would have for this book is that it dosn't shasre nay imformation about the different artist although it is very informitive on the ranges of styles and artworks.
