[edit] Inaccurate claim ?

As of June 29 2007, the article says: "He was the first artist to sell an Internet art piece to a contemporary art museum, The Cartier Foundation for Contemporary Art, in Paris in 1998." This claim isn't supported by any secondary litterature i'm aware of. For example, according to "New Media Art", by Mark Tribe/Reena Jana, Taschen, Bonn, 2006, ISBN 978-3-8228-3041-3, the first piece of online art sold to a museum (the Whitney Museum of American Art) is "The World's First Collaborative Sentence" by Douglas Davis, in 1995. As long as this isn't proven wrong, the mentioned claim should be removed from this page. 1904.CC 22:11, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] POV and Cleanup rationales

  • Article is not Neutral-POV, several sentences in opening paragraphs.
  • Lists use BR html tags instead of Wiki syntax for lists.
  • Article needs general language/wording/spelling/grammar cleanup.
  • Some internal html links need converting into references, some already have been.
