(((Hmmm. That looks pretty handy.)))

Link: MediaArtHistories.

"Contributors trace the evolution of digital art, from thirteenth century Islamic mechanical devices and eighteenth century phantasmagoria, magic lanterns, and other multimedia illusions, to Marcel Duchamp's inventions and 1960s Kinetic and Op Art. They reexamine and redefine key media art theory terms–machine, media, exhibition–and consider the blurred dividing lines between art products and consumer products and between art images and science images."
