ENVisualisation and voyeurism are new features of art associated with the rapid improvement of technologies. Since ancient Greek philosophers, works of art of different epochs have sought to reflect the world surrounding man. In the 20th century, audio recording and video technologies were made use of to achieve this. These technologies encourage us to go deeper into a work of art extending the time of observing it with the help of different means (mirrors, installations, audio recordings, by combining natural and artificial materials in applied and fine arts; in music they encourage us not only to listen to it but also to watch video, light and colour scores, go deeper into scientific comments). Due to a large flow of information surrounding a modern man, creators of works of art use new means that were unusual earlier to make a consumer get more interested, to involve him to a lesser or greater extent in the process of perceiving art that reflects the modern world.
