An exploration of online art exhibitions and archives, this talk is co-presented with Julia Krolik, who asks how galleries are challenging themselves to move away from a static image. We discuss the technical challenges of presenting interactive digital work and explore a wide range of online interactive experiences.

This talk has been updated and presented several times, most recently online for Video Pool Media Arts Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
