- Abstract: 200-500 words
- Through our personal involvement in the design of cultural multimedia projects we have developed a special interest in multimedia architectures, which are the subject of this text. We employ the term “multimedia architectures” to denote three different axes: spatial architecture of screens and interfaces, architecture of the content organisation and the architecture of programming and navigation design. We have tried to establish analogies and relations between the spatial organization and the program structure of the architectural project and the corresponding properties of a multimedia work. We have analysed the cultural multimedia of the period 1990-2005 with the aim of discovering innovative elements in the design of the graphical and interactive interface. These innovations represent new artistic programs and have contributed to the gradual emergence of a new language, specific to the digital space of interactive multimedia. A new habitus of artistic production has developed on the legacy of the old means of expression and on the assimilation of new media.
