"It is debatable
when exactly the history of digital art began. Artists
have been experimenting with computers at least since
the 1970's... As in the evolution of photography and
video art, this new medium was often considered a threat
to traditional art forms...
Over the decades, art making use of digital technologies
has taken many forms, and even today, the question of
how exactly
digital or new media art can be defined is still being
debated."
