Is it some sort of a tool, a method in order to strength the relation between art and technology?
Is it an abbreviation of something?
Is it a new version of art with particular aims and objectives such as dialogue, development, freedom, peace…etc?
Is it describing the today easy to make art that ensuring interactivity with the public through today technology?
Is it the name of the coming era of art?
