Make art with code (and Google)

Google launches DevArt initiative

There's a new class of artist in the world. Artists whose main canvases are technology and interaction. Google has launched the DevArt initiative with Barbican Centre in London to highlight the works of selected, established interactive artists like Zach Lieberman, Karsten Schmidt and Varvara and Mar, at the same time as giving the platform and opportunity for aspiring coders and programmers to show off their skills for this form of art. Together, these interactive artists will form the body of work of the upcoming Digital Revolution exhibition to take place at the Barbican in July.
