The Model of Levels. An Investigation of the Role of Internet Artworks in formulating a New Communication Model in the Internet

      Аннотация: The 'Internet Arts' are a new field that has emerged from the new media revolution. There are many works in this field that are unique, creative and singular in relation to their concept and practice, especially concerning the human communication aspect. The emulations and experimentations in communication by the internet artists’ works are now generating new and unexpected communication paradigms .However, the scholars in the communication field have declared that the current classical communication models are not adequate in reflecting the communication process within the field of this new media. Also, because the internet artworks are imbedded in this new media field, these models are not sufficient to reflect the communication process within them. Therefore, this book will identify a new communication model named “ model of levels” that will have the ability to express the communication process within internet artworks.. and provide significant knowledge to fill the theoretical gap between the communication science and the internet arts fields.
