    This I had to get, as it completely stuck with me. There is so much going on within this minimal scene, I can just sit with it for ages. “ THE WIND IS PICKING UP” - Erik Swahn https://verse.works/items/ethereum/0xb4a4d57…

    I didn’t know Zilla nor Wib&Wob. Very interesting work. The LLM’s knowledge of visual culture is, to simplify, via semantic description, and when it is drawing it also uses descriptions to contol the tools, furthermore s…

Is destroying the file and avoiding screens entirely the most radical thing you can do with digital art? Every work I make begins in code and machine logic, but ends as a single unique hand drawing on paper. When it's finished, I delete everything: the source files, the intermediate states, the whole dig...

Why does art still have to be either digital or analogue? The art market seems settled on a binary that makes less sense every year: art is either digital, meaning it lives on a screen (and/or printed as an edition), or analogue, meaning it never touched a c...
