Each selection in this Aspect edition provides a different approach to mediated, time-based art. These artists are developing new artistic genres, and are considered pioneers in the area of electronic art. The DVD has very good production values, and is relatively easy to set up and view. In some cases there are interactive elements which may or may not be used by the viewer. It is formatted for both Windows and Macintosh platforms. Highly recommended.
