Agree with original sentiment. Part of the future. More serious work in the arts (imaging, music, architecture, etc.) and sciences is simply a ridiculous suggestion to accomplish on mobile devices. Horsepower, input / output contexts,

Key point “good” is a seductive bait word. Art / language is emergent in nature, as is our modeling of science and other realms. As such, some work may not meet the privileged notions of “good” until long after an author has offered he

Yikes. There are a remarkable collection of writers on that site such as Rob Horning. Contemporary and readable, with some decent depth to explore further. I am surprised at the comparison.
