[eu-gene] The first public presentationof DynamicPaintingtechnology

> Were is the ART?

??? Wikipedia: "Art is the process or product of deliberately and creatively arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses or emotions." 

>Did you draw the original images or build them by hand or with code?

"Original image" doesn't exist. Dynamic painting is a combination of computer code and hundreds of textures (colormaps, surfaces and so on) that have been made manually. The computer code consist of two parts - the engine and the set of shaders written on GLSL. The engine is the same for any dynamic painting, the set of shaders is unique for each picture.
The sound has been generated too but this part of project is not finished at the moment.

  HeHe , so true,
  Per your other post
  the idea that even a doctor can afford a rig like this that runs itself is a long way off. 

  I question the artist maker himself? 
  As has been talked about before, how much coding is the tool doing, how much is the programmer/the artist doing- when does it become art -?

  I asked San Base Questions - 
   Were is the ART?
   Did you draw the original images or build them by hand or with code?
  These are answered by users on this list as a matter of course AS ITS A MAIN PURPOSE of using a private list and not a public forum/bbs.

  He answered with another PR web site blurb instead of technical information.
  Thats using us not the list

I'm not a first digital artist of course. As well as I'm not a first 
generative artist.
You are artist. Good artist. But anyway you can't make a PAINTING (maybe for 
now). You make a GRAPHICS.
I can make dynamic PAINTING. It's difference.
  

    Oh my. Are you sure you actually have a separate PR person? Banksy: "All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?"
