Bang Bang: Is Pd Art?
Ironically, much of my break was filled with discussions of what art is. In an age where a wall that has been painted grey is art, Pd could be considered art. The question should be "How liberal are you?" I am not so liberal as to consider Pd art. Pd is a tool to create art, much like a paintbrush is to a painter. Put into the right hands one could create a masterpiece of digital media, but to the untrained eye Pd just looks like a series of boxes and lines. A certain beauty could be found in the organized chaos of Pd, but didn't a dead guy say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
