The volume starts with a thematic block entitled "Contributions to the Theory of New Media Art" and discussions on some of the key themes in the theory of new media art. The authors of discussions understand new media art more broadly, through its social contexts and implications, as well as through its relations with other social, political, philosophical, cultural and artistic issues and phenomena, such as the challenges of the anthropocene, gaming, social media, activism and artificial intelligence. The authors of the discussions are Janez Strehovec, PhD, Aleš Vaupotič, PhD, and Narvika Bovcon, PhD; a longer introduction was written by Maja Murnik, PhD.
In addition to the thematic block, the number brings an essay on the comic in the theatre for children and young people and five book reviews.
The issue was edited by dr. Maja Murnik.
The new number was presented on 14 December 2024 at the Slovenian Theatre Institute by the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Maja Murnik, PhD, in collaboration with the authors of the discussions in this issue, Dr. Narvika Bovcon and Dr. Ales Vaupotič and Dr. Gašper Troha, Director of SLOGI.
