Categories
Artistic Innovation Prize
This comprehensive category is directed at all creative, innovative app developments, that make use of the artistic design playroom of the medium.Special Prize for Crowd Art
“Crowd Art” refers both to deterritorialized, networked cloud computing, and to the collective creativity that is enabled by it. Crowd Art further refers to the transition of the analog age of production to the age of digital distribution. Apps on mobile end products are the global experimental labs for this new art form.Special Prize for Augmented Reality Art
The applications for “Augmented Reality” testify to a specific kind of computer-generated, supplemental information. Virtual objects that intersect with real space form an added dimension and expand our possibilities of perception. The creative further development of this technology in the mobile area stands at the focus of the Augmented Reality Art Award.Initiators: ZKM | Karlsruhe and CyberForum e.V.
