BACKGROUND

"Networked" proposes that a history or critique of interactive and/or 
participatory art must itself be interactive and/or participatory; 
that the technologies used to create a work suggest new forms a 
"book" might take.

In 2008, Turbulence.org and its project partners -- NewMediaFix, 
Telic Arts Exchange, and Freewaves - issued an international, open 
call for chapter proposals. We invited contributions that critically 
and creatively rethink how networked art is categorized, analyzed, 
legitimized -- and by whom -- as norms of authority, trust, 
authenticity and legitimacy evolve.

Our international committee consisted of: Steve Dietz (Northern 
Lights, MN) :: Martha Gabriel (net artist, Brazil) :: Geert Lovink 
(Institute for Network Cultures, The Netherlands) :: Nick Montfort 
(Massachusetts Institute for Technology, MA) :: Anne Bray (LA 
Freewaves, LA) :: Sean Dockray (Telic Arts Exchange, LA) :: Jo-Anne 
Green (NRPA, MA) :: Eduardo Navas (newmediaFIX) :: Helen Thorington 
(NRPA, NY)

We are deeply grateful to Eduardo Navas for his commitment to both 
this project and past collaborations with Turbulence.org.
