"What about an issue on Mexico?" came the suggestion from a frequent contributor. We realized we had never published a work from South or Latin America. At ASPECT we continuously push ourselves to expand the breadth of our publication, and Arte de las Americas became our way to begin to represent a vibrant and important region of artists. New Media Art crosses linguistic, cultural, and geographic boundaries, and our goal is to represent the genre in all its forms and sources.
