Technology-Based Art

Technology has significantly impacted all aspects of the 21st century, including art.
Art is now defined by technology, from creation to distribution.
Technology-based art is often computer-generated or manipulated.

Traditional vs. Computer-Generated Art

Historically, artists used tools like brushes, paints, and palettes.
Modern computer artists use image manipulation software and programs.
Computer-generated art can exist in various forms (physical or virtual).

Computer/Digital Art Origins

Computer/digital art emerged in the early 1960s.
This development was linked to advancing technology.
Early experimenters were primarily engineers and scientists.
Scientists and engineers identified the potential of applying science and math principles to art.
While geometric forms and patterns are common in digital art, traditional subjects are sometimes included within these patterns.

Public Reaction to Computer-Generated Art

The initial public reaction questioned whether computer-generated art could be considered "true art".
Devices were used in place of human hands.
Within a few years, acceptance of digital art as a legitimate art form grew.
Digital art became a highly popular and critically acclaimed art form.
Digital artists gained recognition, and "superstars" arose in Europe, Russia, and the United States.
