Mandfred Mohr and Rosa Menkman

            Digital art can take many forms. It can be something as simple as using an algorithm for the perfect drawing all the way to finding art through mistakes in pixels on a screen.

Rosa Menkman finds the beauty in mistakes that broken images provide. One is given the title of pioneer in digital art and the other is showing us what the internet without people would be like.
