<BR><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Computer Animation / Visual Effects</FONT></B><BR>
<FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The “Computer Animation / Visual Effects” category has been part of the Prix Ars Electronica since its very inception. It recognizes excellence in independent work in the arts and sciences as well as in high-end commercial productions in the film, advertising and entertainment industries. In this category, artistic originality counts just as much as masterful technical achievement.<BR>
<BR>
</FONT><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Digital Musics</FONT></B><BR>
<FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Contemporary digital sound productions from the broad spectrum of “electronica” come in for consideration in the “Digital Musics” category, as do works combining sound and media, computer compositions ranging from electro-acoustic to experimental music, or sound installations. This category’s programmatic agenda is to expand horizons beyond the confines of individual genres and artistic currents.<BR>
<BR>
</FONT><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Interactive Art</FONT></B><BR>
<FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The “Interactive Art” category is dedicated to interactive works in all forms and formats, from installations to performances. Here, particular consideration is given to the realization of apowerful artistic concept through the especially appropriate use of technologies, the innovativeness of the interaction design, and the work’s inherent potential to expand the human radius of action.<BR>
<BR>
</FONT><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Net Vision</FONT></B><BR>
<FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The "Net Vision" category singles out for recognition artistic projects in the Internet that display brilliance in how they have been engineered, designed and- especially-conceived, works that are outstanding with respect to innovation, interface design and the originality of their content. The way in which a work of net-based art deals with the online medium is essential in this category.<BR>
<BR>
</FONT><B><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Digital Communities</FONT></B><BR>
<FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">“Digital Communities” encompasses the wide-ranging social consequences of the Internet as well as the latest developments in the domain of mobile communications and wireless networks. “Digital Communities” will spotlight bold and inspired innovations impacting human coexistence, bridging the digital divide regarding gender as well as geography, or creating outstanding social software and enhancing accessibility of technological-social infrastructure. This new category will showcase the political potential of digital and networked systems and is thus designed as a forum for a broad spectrum of projects, programs, initiatives and phenomenain which social innovation is taking place, as itwere, in real time.</FONT></P>
