What is Media Arts?

Media Arts is art that is created through use of new media and technology.  

The term media art is used to indicate a certain group of art works. In general, the term media art is understood to apply to all forms of time-related art works which are created
by recording sound or visual images.

A time-related art work is a work that changes and 'moves', in contrast to older art forms that are static, which stand still, such as paintings, photographs and most sculptures. Time-related art works include works in the fields of sound, video and computer art, both installations and internet projects, and single channel works.  Single channel works are video works that are shown by projection, or on a monitor screen
