Regarding the bot creator - I'm unable to see a post where he explicitly says that he's an artist or his bit is an art project or that he's creating art. However, if he were to do so then I'd whole-heartily agree and then proceed to explore his creation from an art perspective.
He does actually, in his "Address a criticism" post, he explicitly says he considers the budget for the bot's purchases as money for "art supplies".
- kevinpet 14y agoHe isn't claiming it's art. He's saying that we wouldn't criticize the guy spending $50 a month on art supplies to spread on a canvas with their feet, so what's wrong with his hobby?
- unwind 14y agoI read this sentence: I am operating from a position of privilege where I can afford to spend money to make art. As being exactly such a claim by the author of the script.
