"The work of Metahaven consists of filmmaking, writing, graphic design, and installations, and is united by interests in poetry, storytelling, digital superstructures, and propaganda. Central to their practice is the narration of technological and political conditions through aesthetically immersive plots. Told through a multitude of languages and genres, their work imagines alternate realities and potential futures, and builds on a lineage of filmmakers and artists who use investigative and speculative methods to pinpoint the urgencies of their time"--Page 4 of cover.

Today it has become increasingly difficult to find a person or an object without some kind of connection to the internet. 'No internet, no art' is dedicated to exploring what this situation entails with respect to one cultural field in particular: art. This anthology forms both the culmination and a continuation of a series of public events titled 'Lunch Bytes: Thinking about Art and Digital Culture', held in Washington, D.C., which invited artists and experts from different fields to discuss their work in relation to this overarching theme. By opening up the often narrowly-defined discursive field of 'post-internet,' artistic practices are examined thematically within the larger context of digital culture. As such, this anthology offers valuable new contributions to the fields of art history, media studies, philosophy, curatorial studies, and design.
