This interview, recorded in Milan on 9 June 2025, features Maria Grazia Mattei, Founder and President of MEET, the Italian Center for Digital Culture (Milan). A journalist, art critic, and self-described “digital evangelist”, Mattei offers a compelling reflection on the trajectory of new media art and its intersection with technology from the 1980s to the present day. She traces a consistent and visionary path, deeply rooted in early avant-garde influences and a fascination with the social implications of emerging digital tools. Her work has been defined by a commitment to interpreting and making accessible the complex processes of technological innovation within art, emphasizing participation, collaboration, and real-time communication long before these became mainstream concepts.

摘要

This interview, recorded in Milan on 9 June 2025, features Maria Grazia Mattei, Founder and President of MEET, the Italian Center for Digital Culture (Milan). A journalist, art critic, and self-described “digital evangelist”, Mattei offers a compelling reflection on the trajectory of new media art and its intersection with technology from the 1980s to the present day. She traces a consistent and visionary path, deeply rooted in early avant-garde influences and a fascination with the social implications of emerging digital tools. Her work has been defined by a commitment to interpreting and making accessible the complex processes of technological innovation within art, emphasizing participation, collaboration, and real-time communication long before these became mainstream concepts.
