"The Arts and Their Interrelations" is the first book of its kind. It did much to stimulate the present educational trend toward comparative surveys of the arts. This enlarged edition opens the way to further progress in the understanding of the arts from a standpoint of content, form, and function. Most book on the arts today are highly specialized, focusing on one art form, artist, style, or collection. By contrast, "The Arts and Their Interrelations" deals with all the arts: the visual arts, literature, music, theater, film, and industrial arts. Dr. Munro offers a theoretical explanation of these arts which is applicable to works of any place and period. The nature of each major art form of today is outlined, and comparisons are made with earlier art forms with respect to media and psychological materials, to forms, techniques, and processes employed, and to functions served in society. A concise historical sketch of the changing concepts of art and systems of classification since the time of Plato is also presented. -- From publisher's description

This issue explores the tensions between literature and the sciences, focusing on responses which see science as an alien ideology that threatens everything the arts hold dear, and on a more positive response that sees the sciences as providing new tools, viewpoints, and knowledge about the world.

Artists and creators in interactive art and interaction design have long been conducting research on human-machine interaction. Through artistic, conceptual, social and critical projects, they have shown how interactive digital processes are essential elements for their artistic creations. Resulting prototypes have often reached beyond the art arena into areas such as mobile computing, intelligent ambiences, intelligent architecture, fashionable technologies, ubiquitous computing and pervasive gaming. Many of the early artist-developed interactive technologies have influenced new design practices, products and services of today's media society. This book brings together key theoreticians and practitioners of this field. It shows how historically relevant the issues of interaction and interface design are, as they can be analyzed not only from an engineering point of view but from a social, artistic and conceptual, and even commercial angle as well.
