An application for browsing and researching all of the projects submitted to the Digital Sparks Award between 2001 and 2006. Through an image matrix, which serves as the graphic interface, each project is represented by an individual image. A virtual lens can be moved over the image matrix. If selected, a short film about the chosen project is started. It serves as an information and research tool for artists, curators, exhibition organisers and media agents. The DVD contains videos and brief information on the authors, colleges, supervising college teachers, the title of the work, plus keywords relating to the project. Linked to the Internet platform netzspannung.org the user can get detailed information on the contents, technology and on the context of the development of the projects.
