  1. You made some good points there. I did a search on the subject matter and found most individuals will approve with your blog.

    You can’t be a software user and a digital artist at the same time. “user” and “artist” are just too incongruous. It might even be appropriate to define an artist as one who has transcended the direct limits of the application, or use, of technique. There are probably exceptions, especially at the extremes where cultural meaning intersects rudimentary craft (I seem to have answered my own question: a google image search of “microsoft paint art,” –try it. I dare you yields some, well, conversation stoppers on this matter. It’s post-modernism at its most tantalizingly ironic extreme. Contrast with: “photoshop art,” many more “power users,” much less art). Highly entertaining exceptions aside, in general, I think the original statement holds true, and Marc Downie helps explain why we can learn a lot from this distinction. Downie is an artist, and then some, owning his computational process, while promoting and enabling others to do the same. Too many artists are concerned with owning knowledge, or worse, owning software (or owning the knowledge of the software they own).Downie clearly articulates the most important unmet need we designers have relative to technology: the need to move laterally…to move information nimbly between contexts…to manipulate and translate between computational structures. While we can debate whether or to what degree Downie’s work is architecture (I think much of it is, for the record), the issues he raises are certainly at the core of architects’ contemporary discourse relative to technology: Automating complex design procedures (using software designed to do conventional tasks better or faster) often means relinquishing creative control over much of the process.
