Software art is a practice that rewards software as a cultural phenomenon that defines one of the principal domains of our existence today. Thus, software is not regarded as an invisible layer, but rather as a decisive level and a language working at reproduction of certain orders, whether aesthetic, cultural, social or political. Software art creatively questions and redefines software and its ways of functioning, thus, influencing on composition and functioning of the basic infrastructures of digital society. In that way, software cultures become inseparable from digital work, social institutions and cultural manifestations of today.
