You will be familiar with the use CD-ROMS or WWW
to extend knowledge of artists or designers and locate examples of artwork.
But ICT can support art and artists in more
diverse ways than this.........
ICT can be used to facilitate
the process of developing ideas and recording that process - in effect a digital
sketch book (see example)
ICT can be used as a tool to
transfer images from one medium to another (see
example)
It can be used to to promote
easy experimentation with changing effects (see
example)
Consider ICT as a new medium
giving different outcomes (see
example)
It can be used to manipulate
images easily
It also has a role in adapting
artwork for different purposes for example conventional artwork may be
photographed and incorporated into a multi media presentation, an on-line
gallery or used to make posters to advertise an art exhibition (see
example)
In summary, we can use ICT toRESEARCH,
CREATE, MANIPULATE and TRANSFER.
