He openly claims to be a poor programmer, and as an artist... well, my contention is that he appeals to a very limited audience. That's not a criticism, simply a suggestion that while he may be valuable in an artistic sense to some people, he's not contributing to the "tech community" in a meaningful way. By which I simply mean that he should not be a yardstick by which we measure anyone.
