Is everyone suddenly a creative technologist? Bring your confusion (or other emotions) with this vogue mega-identity, and let's look together at the landscape we had at the turn of the 21st century — before the breed of people who combine art and technology in their (re)search became defined. In this endeavor, we will rely on an encyclopedia of modern media art assembled by the late Bay Area theorist and artist Stephen Wilson.
