The Anti-Sublime Ideal in Data Art Response

What i find interesting about this article is the discussion of dimensions, and how information can be presented in different dimensions- and that designers have to determine which ones to use. Choices made by designers are often criticized by the consuming public because of who and what is represented in these dimensions.

Another thought provoking point to this article is that new media is a way in which we re-map old media. It renovates the way analog objects operate, and open new doors for artists and designers to expand their abilities. A simple example would be creating or manipulating a static image in Photoshop, and importing it into AfterEffects to combine it with time and other dimensions.
