In his 1923 lecture "Art and Technology: A New Unity," Walter Gropius addressed his modern vision with the Bauhaus in favor of technological invention and possible expansion of our experience. His progressive belief in the unity of art and technology still appeals to us, facing unprecedented development of technology. Against a backdrop of Gropius's unifying vision, we'd like to open up discussions on the various formation of art in relation to the advance of modern technology. In the era when being technologically correct would matter as Lorne Falk has pointed out, a unity of art and technology should be critically reconsidered for its validity and viability.
An enthusiastic embrace of modern technology has contributed to inventing a new aesthetic, thereby expanding our senses. Along the triumphal path of inventions though, some ethical questions could be posed. Possible discussion includes, but not be limited to, historical investigations of the efforts unifying disparate areas, interactions between art, science, and technology, a reflection on the mixed blessing of the interactions, any viable avant-garde vision in the integration, a critical view on the abuse/misuse of technology for a new art. The term "art" includes visual art, photography, film, video art, architecture, new media art, and bio-art. We welcome submissions from art historians, critics, artists, curators, philosophers, administrators, professionals, and scholars, whose interdisciplinary interests would be drawn to the issue. All perspectives and methodologies are welcome.
