  abstract  = {The Myth of Media Art: the aesthetics of the techno/imaginary and an art theory of virtual realities. "The Myth of Media Art" deals with key issues of contemporary media art. In the second part of the book, "Media Contexts: Key Topics, Arguments, Examples", art-related fields and significant media issues illustrate the inter-relationship between poetic creation and labor, and artistic practice and economy. Furthermore, the book provides an analysis of fragmentation and totality as diametric poles of a utopian renewal of art, as well as prospects of a media Mannerism, i.e., a renewal of art developed to a meta-level awareness of form in the era of advanced media machines. The book concludes with a careful examination of several works by important artists.},

Lanciert vor {\"u}ber zehn Jahren, um der Kunst einen weiteren Raum zu sichern, ist es an der Zeit, eine Revision vorzunehmen. Es geht um - philosophische wie poetische - Allianzen zwischen Kunst, Wissenschaft, Technologie und Lebenswelt, die sich nicht l{\"a}nger mit der Magie der Bilder begn{\"u}gen wollen.},
