The Whitney Museum of American Art has created ARTPORT, an online portal for net art and digital arts, as well as an online gallery space for commissioned net art projects. One of the commissioned projects is called {Software} Structures, which explores the relevance of conceptual art to the idea of software as art. The artist Casey Reas explains:

"The catalyst for this project is the work of Sol LeWitt, specifically his wall drawings. I had a simple question: "Is the history of conceptual art relevant to the idea of software as art?" I began to answer the question by implementing three of Lewitt's drawings in software and then making modifications.

After working with the LeWitt plans, I created three structures unique to software. These software structures are text descriptions outlining dynamic relations between elements. They develop in the vague domain of image and then mature in the more defined structures of natural language before any thought is given to a specific machine implementation.

Twenty-six pieces of software derived from these structures were written to isolate different components of software structures including interpretation, material, and process. For each, you may view the software, source code, and comments."
