Art today, redefined by its relationship to technological innovation, changes
to both its meaning and its many functions in the all-pervasive communications
culture. Creative inspiration derives from many sources; we can no longer
speak about imagery singly as art or design or communication. It is no longer
a question of film versus video or painting versus photography. We can only
conceive of the postmodern image as a child of multimedia that reflects the
spirit of our time, without hierarchies and authoritative voices.
