Interactive art utilizes cutting-edge technologies such as programming, data visualization, and virtual reality to present an art form distinct from traditional art. This form of art emphasizes interactivity, with content and shapes that morph into captivating patterns as the mouse moves or the screen is touched. This approach not only breaks the boundaries of traditional art creation and appreciation but also makes the art experience more personalized and diverse. Interactive art explores new types of interactions between people, information, and environments in the digital age, highlighting the evolving relationship facilitated by technology.
