Digital Culture & Society (Dcs): Vol 8, Issue 2/2022 - Algorithmic Art

What happened to the 1960s ideas of machine art, cybernetic art, algorithmic revolution , and the hopes for a democratization of the art market? How do contemporary art practitioners cope with the political situation and with the attempts of the Silicon Valley giants to appropriate algorithmic generation of art-like artefacts?This issue aims to discuss how the early concept of computer art is now being reframed as digital, post-digital or algorithmic art under the prevailing conditions of big data, smart AI, an almost all-encompassing surveillance technology and the political state of neo-liberalism.
