Summary: | In Entertaining the Environment, Andrew Goodman and Erin Manning explore art- based interactivity beyond the human-based aspect of interaction. Exploring the concept of entertainment itself, and the notion that the non-human is an active aspect aspect of any artistic event, they propose an ecological outlook that includes the human in the interaction but does not depend on it. For them, entertaining the environment suggests that a whole field of relations is active in any event. This field of relations, they argue, is key to understand the scope of an interactive model that goes beyond the instrumental. |
