“The postmedial condition doesn't make the individual worlds of apparatuses, the internal specificities of media world redundant. Specificity of proper media worlds is on the contrary additionally differentiating internally. The specificity of the media is in the postmedial condition for the first time truly accessible - specific media properties from painting to film. Computer is for instance able to simulate the level of graininess of 16-mm film tape and manage its settings better than the real film tape. […] Postmedial computer, universal machine, is the instrument that in reality actually allows - seemingly paradoxical - a consistent execution of the realm of medial specifics. Every artistic practice nowadays follows medial regulations and medial script. These media don't include only old and new technical media like photography and computers, but also old analogous media such as painting and sculpture, which were influenced and transformed by the media. Under this supposition we therefore repeat a valid statement: "Every artistic practice follows the script of the media."”
