Philosophy:Post-Internet
Post-Internet is an art movement and a loose descriptor[1] for works that are derived from the Internet or its effects on aesthetics, culture and society.[2][3] The term emerged from mid-2000s discussions about Internet Art by Marisa Olson, Gene McHugh, and Artie Vierkant.[4] Between the 2000s and 2010s, post-Internet artists were largely the domain of millennials operating on web platforms such as Tumblr and MySpace. The movement is also responsible for spearheading slews of microgenres and subcultures such as seapunk and vaporwave.[1]
The term is controversial and highly criticized in the art community.[1] According to a 2015 article in The New Yorker, the term describes "the practices of artists who ... unlike those of previous generations, [employ] the Web [as] just another medium, like painting or sculpture. Their artworks move fluidly between spaces, appearing sometimes on a screen, other times in a gallery."[5] In the early 2010s, "post-Internet" was popularly associated with the musician Grimes, who used the term to describe her work at a time when post-Internet concepts were not typically discussed in mainstream music arenas.[6]
