ArtStream, a Web-based, curated exhibition space for Internet art,
seeks to promote the work of Internet artists while bringing it into
the "legitimized" world of traditional museum culture. Therefore,
ArtStream makes it easy for a curator from a less technical background
to administer an exhibit. ArtStream is the product of collaboration
between the University of Arizona Museum of Art and the Treistman
Center for New Media, in the University of Arizona College of Fine
Arts. The project was funded by a New Learning Environments grant
from the university.
The ArtStream administrative area was created with the typical
Web user in mind, relying on standard Web forms in standard Web
browsers for system interaction. Information entered into these
java server pages forms is stored in a MySQL database structure
and is then displayed through dynamic Flash technology on the public
front end.
Please visit ArtStream,
the Treistman
Center for New Media, and the University
of Arizona Museum of Art for more information.
