no criterium can be applyied on a art work, except internal and 
personnal sensitivity

Obsolescence of the technologies. All internet artworks rapidly disapear.

No special input. The "art world" is divided in two worlds: [the market 
of art ( financial market), 95% of the creation, based on esthetics, 
"art pompier numérique"]  and [digital poetry-raw-vision-freedom-no 
precise definition possible]

artist or curator, never care about what you call " the art world", or 
you will produce shit.

harddisks and videotapes when you do a screenshot or a recording....

Internet is still free, despite the efforts of GAFAM and co

Zuckerberg and co would like that all the people in the world are 
connected to their low-cost, no freedom, anti-web-neutrality shit 
project ( internet.org). Are some artists able to use this network ?

any observation of the world show that we enter a post-brain era.
