i fear 99.99999% of all internet or computer art is like that. bad computer art gets alot of funding and it all ends up very promotional....like on the level of a software demo. hopefully this thing will all blow over and folk wiil get bored with trying to exploit all the wonderful features of interactive television etc. it would have calmed down already but all that flash junk came up.....gotta exploit it's wonderful features...this could actually be a never ending thing. it is goofy...i spent a long time downloading a music program once and ended up with a very complicated computer version of an analog synthesizer...it'd take 2 hrs to get a sine wave sound that wobbled.
i don't know what that means
