I’d argue an unsolvable maze is art only if the artist can conceive of and understands the metaphor. Or can at least comprehend that they are doing mazes with no solution.
The computer has no understanding of what it’s doing. And I don’t think you can argue that it’s interrupting a brief for a commission. Is it even producing at???
- kian 5y agoI think it is the person perceiving that transforms the work into art. If they can perceive the metaphor, why does it matter if the artist cannot?
- 2muchcoffeeman 5y agoThat could be true. But it’s a bit awkward no? A human needs to be there at the beginning to either dream up a concept and then describe it in painful detail to the computer. Or a human needs to be there at the end to sift through the results to pick out the ones that actually match some concept. In trying to think of a useful application for this: if an artist can lock down the style of the output, and then pump in a script and further description to story board things or get near final output, that could be quite useful.
