doingrhsh. noemata. Re asciipng. greyscale movie from a
text'stranslated chars ( char values. greyscale levels one char perframe
fps) but the idea was a bit too. obvious and the transformationtoo
onedimensional so I abandoned it.Yes. they'd be tedious work shades
of gray in a tiny specter. etaoinshrdlu..monotonous.. translating media
spectacle news etc into this. gray stream ofindifference..The key to
having this kind of idea succeed in. general is not merely to workout an
effective transform method from char to. pixel etc. but to have
themethod reveal something unexpected of the. underlying structure of
the sourcematerial. If the transformation results. simply in a stream of
meaninglesscolors or chars then it will be of little. interest even as a
conceptsince the concept is a fairly common one to be. honest. There
are a lot ofpeople right now who mistakenly believe that they. are
making radical art byturning photos into music pictures into text etc..
As with all works ofthis kind it is by breaking through to the next level
and. having the workblossom into something that nobody has ever seen
before or could. haveexpected to see that turns the idea from a mere
amusement into art.OK but. not as a program art shouldn't care about
itself being this or thatcritical. penetrating revolutional reversing
undermining etc. In my viewart is quite. natural it doesn't need a
program to live no more than we do.Lot of things I. do are very stupid
things I don't mind that. And also thequackfraudulent. issue the artist
maybe had some conjurer traits from thebeginning staging. something
he not necessarily believe in but as atechnician of imagination. lies and
language. How does he differ from say apolitician then He's clear.
about it everybody knows it's a scam open sourcescam so the art
context is. reflective revealing its staging. What aboutbeauty and
wholeness Well there's. always some endorfines in resolving
thingspotential and exhaustion beauty in. understanding things
wholenesses atdifferent levels which is like cashing in. on the structure
but there arealways remains and other levels expansion and.
consolidation chaos andstability. Beauty taken over by design etc
wholeness. by.. welll it's stillthere but like code source not wholeness
