>> The portfolio *"Print by Number"* ties with the theme of the conference "Command P" and illustrates the
<br />
>> digital technology as a versatile tool for artistic expression.<br /> <br />
>> The use of digital technology in the realm of art is often dominated by criticisms like the missing physical ÎmarkÌ of the artist;
>> the controversy of authorship; the lack of physical and tactile qualities; and most importantly, the absence of the ÎauraÌ in the work. <br />
>> The portfolio not only represents the versatility of this new media to create artworks, but also shows that the digital technology<br/>
>> has unique and remarkable aesthetics of its own.<br />
>><br />
>> The word ÏNumberÓ refers to the language of the computer and the conversion of all data into bits (0s and 1s). The phrase <br/> >> ÏPrint by NumberÓ thus refers to the prints that are either purely digital or are created in collaboration of digital techniques <br />
>> with traditional media. <br />
