information art

Art that uses information and the examination of information as its primary
focus. (Imagine a possible piece of information art: a visual poem built within
a GIS. A landscape of the imagination that is created out of words and
images. An interactive environment whose particular reality each reader
would determine. A place where each inhabitant could choose the particular
aspects of the world to view. A land of word and shadow and possibility.)
