Task 6: Idea 1

The impact of digital technologies within art and advertising. 

5 Relevant and inspiring quotes: 

1. "There is a huge outcry among traditional artists regarding the authenticity of art created using digital technologies. They argue that creativity is lacking in most of the digital creations, and hence they cannot be treated as a genuine art form." http://www.designjuices.co.uk/2011/08/creative-digital-media/

2.  "The greatest impact could be the expansion of our audiences, but the worst impact is the attention span of the moment of interaction." http://www.pewinternet.org/2013/01/04/section-6-overall-impact-of-technology-on-the-arts/

3. "I can’t emphasise the importance of the internet and social media in our marketing efforts enough." http://www.pewinternet.org/2013/01/04/section-6-overall-impact-of-technology-on-the-arts/

4. "Social media can have an impact on the arts 
from at least three different perspectives: helping to bring audiences to performances and to artworks by matching art to people who are looking for it, providing a platform to 
create art and carry on dialogue and debates around communities of interest and giving organisations tools to listen to the public and build arts awareness." http://www.cpaf-opsac.org/en/themes/documents/digitaltransitionsreport-final-en.pdf

5. "So, just as artists and arts organisations should be finding it easier to reach the public 
directly, they find themselves awash in a sea of content." http://www.cpaf-opsac.org/en/themes/documents/digitaltransitionsreport-final-en.pdf
