Abstract

This paper is a study of the different characteristics of the presentation media of artwork that can exist in physical and non-material form. The paper explores how these characteristics affect the design of an artwork. Physical in this context refers to physical installations, and non-material is used to define artworks where the designer has little or no control over the presentation media, such as artwork that exists online.
