With his signature combination of humor and technical wizardry, Cory Arcangel’s post-Internet video art examines the evolution of digital technology in relation to pop culture through processes of appropriation and manipulation. Using media that date themselves immediately – for example Photoshop templates, YouTube videos and Nintendo game cartridges – Arcangel explores the digital lifecycle and its speed of obsolescence. His innovative technical and conceptual approach, underscored by his devotion to open source code, has made him a leading exponent of digital art and its implications for our contemporary understanding of artistic originality and its commodification.
