toulouz, I couldn't really look at your link ... I'm still it work, and a big hairy ass wouldn't go over too well :P
I'm surprised your instructors don't know what you're talking about. What kind of school are you going to? I haven't been in school for a few years, but I had the impression that this 'new media' thing was all over the place.
Anyway this guy does interesting stuff: http://www.jtnimoy.com/ I'm pretty fascinated by this whole thing too. I studied painting in school, then learned to program after that. Even before I learned to program I was interested in merging a basically intuitive painting process with the more logical parts of my thinking...
chilaquil... that project does look interesting.. although I couldn't see what was so important about the new media in it. Seemed like they were just using it to provide a nice slick appearance. Could have been done without it, right?
And critics are crap. They are part of the elitist consumerist art marketing machine that serves wealthy snobs with too much money on they hands. :P (do I sound bitter?) nah, it's not that bad... but I really do think they talk out their ass mostly.
In the days before mass production and consumerism people used to make things for their homes. Some made it with better craft than others. That's art.
