By 2002, the Blur series had distinguished itself as a critical forum for new media innovators, who ranged from multidisciplinary artists to technologists to theorists. Blur 02: Power at Play in Digital Art and Culture was a series of two evening discussions featuring presentations and performances by a variety of program’s participants, the first of which, Open Play, included a demonstration of entertainment genres such as computer games, electronic music, and animation. The second evening’s discussion, The Network Moment, featured a presentation of playful tactical media responses to mainstream media culture, particularly those that embraced emergent forms of public space.
