Abstract

New media art has been involved in the blurring of the divisions of disciplines. Consequently, it is not easy to appreciate it as an art piece. Thus, this discussion attempts to introduce the involvement of various disciplines into it and take a glimpse of the new media concept. Therefore, the selection of artworks has been made as a sample to analyze, thus introducing us to some New Media artwork in Modern Malaysian art. Subsequently, this paper applies the theories, which are related to this concept. Rationally, it gives us some overview of the diversity and collaboration in Malaysian New Media art and produces different perspectives and perceptions towards the Malaysian Art scene today.
