New Media Art (Taschen Basic Art)
by Mark Tribe

my rating:

Eddie said: "Some good and interesting examples of new media art or computer art but not too much depth. Would have liked more discussion about each piece rather than just a graphic and a blurb. Serves as a decent introductory book when combined with lectures "
