Chapter 2- Internet Art

Chapter 2 like Chapter 1 was a hard read. Its hard to follow Greene's style of writing. I find myself re-reading the paragraphs and at times more confused the second go around than I was after the first. I interpreted the chapter as an attempt to show what goes on inside the internet art community, and what were some of the pioneer internet artist's claim to fame. I can't say I am a huge fan of internet art, most of the pieces highlighted in this chapter are to me aesthetically unsettling. The work seems to be a little outdated. The artists and their work although essential to the understanding and recognition of internet art are examples more from the revolutionary stage of internet art as a medium.
