BIO
The Banner Art Collective
***Apologies in advance for cross-posting***
24 October 2002
The Banner Art Collective (http://bannerart.org) has implemented a new
design created by Garrett Lynch. The new design brings a vast number of
improvements to the site, which collects and distributes net.art and poetry
created according to the limitations of WWW advertising.
The collection is now database driven and easily searchable. Each work is
presented on a separate page, and more artist information is featured next
to each work. Viewers have always been able to access cut-and-paste html
tags to place works from the collection on their own webpages, but now the
site also offers users a php-driven script that, when added to any html
document, serves randomly changing banners from the collection.
In addition, the new design automates the submission process with an online
form which artists can use to easily upload their works to the collection.
There are also new frequently updated sections which contain news, links to
host and sponsor sites, and links to related research and art projects.
Best,
Brandon Barr & Garrett Lynch
