Abstract:
The theoretical frame of the copy and the original can help understanding the type of artworks in traditional art. However, with the development of the application of digital technology, digital artworks are an emerging force.This essay confronts some questions relating to this. Digital artworks are not only a new type, but blur the boundary between works of art and artifacts. Digital static images blur the boundary between the copy and the original, but digital interactive images completely delete this boundary.Absence of the original is becoming the new nature of digital interactive artworks, the meaning of which is waiting for explanation.
