In theory, this course is meant to follow the MAAD 23631 intro course, Internet Art I. In practice you may not have taken that course, as it's not technically a prerequisite. That said, there are certain histories, references, ideas/concepts and coding languages covered in that course which would be helpful (if not necessary) to understand before diving into the material covered in this course. If you did not take the intro course, feel free to poke around and explore as much of the material on the Internet Art I website as you'd like. In the interest of time I've put together some material meant to function as a "Crash Course" for those who did not take the intro course.
