During the lecture in the form of a case study of various cases of internet video and the artist's own works (with particular focus on the online project artUNBOXING), we looked at the relations between video posted on the web as content and those recordings that are made as an artistic verification of internet film genres. At the same time, selected video productions of students from the Faculty of Painting of the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk was presented.
