I think in the relatively near future, video of the artist creating a piece of art will be part of what makes a given piece of art valuable. The provenance will be just as important as the art itself.
- pcthrowaway 4y agoAI tools will soon be able to generate videos showing a specific human producing a specific piece of art. Should we require a video of the person taking the first video also?
- daveguy 4y agoI don't think it's going to be all that soon. Human images are much more difficult to fake than generic "art", much less human video + a piece that is physically created. Plus the price to produce that complex of a fake will be higher than the cost of an artist to setup a tripod and start recording. Recorded public performance of art creation may become the norm after that and then actual robots may be making physical art with impressive skill and intrinsic value... ...Zima Blue. Interesting times.
- sidewndr46 4y agoThis would be hilarious then, because it'd be a video of each artist creating an absolute breathless masterpiece in one single sitting. If forgeries have taught me anything it's that creating visually duplicate works of art is easy.
- daveguy 4y agoWell, if it was a forgery then it would be a video of not-the-artist creating a visually duplicate work. That wouldn't work very well.
