About the project

The archive of interactive art is an attempt to create a platform for sharing documentation of interactive art. In hopes to better understand the different strategies and the similarities of the works.

Largely based on the paper Strategies of interactive art (2010) by Ryszard w. Kluszczynski.

Initiated by Vygintas Orlovas as a part of the postdoctoral project “Exploring strategies of interactive art and active participation. A practice-based approach to map audience engagement” (Nr. S- PD-22-29), funded by the Research Council of Lithuania.
