Artistic and virtual convergences mediated by ICTs in the image society with mobile devices

Abstract

Since Phillip Can materialized the possibility of capturing images with mobile phones and transferring them over the Internet, he facilitated the opening of the instant digital image and its interaction on social networks. Learning in Mobility or Mobile Learning, from the educational level, has taken advantage of this circumstance and the potential of the instant image in arts education. The MovilizARTE project and exhibition, which we will address here, is an example. Likewise, the reflection of other international artists around the Smartphone as a means or element of social culture, approached from art. On the other hand, we present the virtues of Museari, museum of the imaginary, a museum model exclusively online, which avoids the physical materialization of art and reinforces its dissemination through the network. Finally, we approach properly digital art, a new discipline, “Crypto art”, which relies on blockhain technology in NFT format (Non-Fungible Token or non-fungible token).

Keywords: Artistic convergences, hybrid art, ICTs, image society, mobile devices.
