Dynamic art is one of the extensions of digital art, in which the starting of a continuous movement is a basis for the creation of art. It is a means of art expression and a way to collect contemporary artists willing to provide their creations with a life of their own. Dynamic art is stranded in the process of time and its consequences on the artistic atmosphere, and in practice resorts essentially to digital techniques.
Dynamic art aims mainly to animate pictures and give digital creations the breath of life that was dear to Surrealist painters. Its purpose is not to create an apparent change in the work itself, but to endow it with a movement that will finally bring the work "to life". This can be achieved by animating a work of art continuously, briefly, repetitively or randomly; the different types of animation that can be used include real-time evolving, unique, varied or even unnoticeable animation.

- digital portrait ageing in real time, and

One allegorical topic that artists have returned to again and again is art itself. How can the concept of an entire art- rather than the process of making art, or a specific art object- be conveyed visually? In this activity students will become familiar with "the arts" as an allegorical subject.
What are "the arts"? Ask students to create a list of all the arts. Their list might include painting, sculpture, music, dance, poetry, theater, and others. Divide the class into as many groups as there are arts on the collective list. Have each group list the objects, symbols, or figures that might suggest their assigned art category. When they have finished, have each group read their list of attributes to the rest of the class, who will try to identify the art that is suggested by this list.

- Were the other students able to identify each of the arts?
- Why do you think the lists were successful or not successful at suggesting a specific art?
