Introducing Scott Snibbe’s Tripolar App
Originally commissioned by the Whitney for its 2002 CODeDOC exhibition, Scott Snibbe’s Tripolar is now available as an iPhone and iPad app. Tripolar animates the tangled, abstract, and ever-changing forms a pendulum makes as it swings over a magnetic base. The app is available in the iTunes store.

Artport is a Work in Progress
We are currently working to conserve and integrate the digital artworks featured in Artport, which was first launched in 2002.
Gate Pages
The Gate Pages were commissioned from 2001–2006 to provide entry points to Internet artists’ projects and websites. Each month, an artist was invited to present their work in the form of a gate page with links to the artist’s site and most important works. Visit the original Artport website
