Your very answer which includes the suggestion that this is merely a tool to produce three dimensional modeling negates any artistic definition it may have. And before you respond by saying any object can have artistic properties, let me just remind you that we talk about the artistic qualities of a chair differently than we do those of a paintings. An object like this falls much more into the former than the latter. Lastly why is turtlethink so quick to celebrate a creation that calls our current model rigid? How can we possibly develop if we fail to see the possibilities in front of our faces? Monet wasn't a master because he envisioned the next great artistic program, but rather because he could stop and appreciate what others failed to see. The modernest as Baudelaire described was not the person caught up in the modern, but the person who could stop to appreciate it, the person who was extremely aware of it. I'd be careful when crossing the world of art and that of technology. Art must have as its primary purpose the existence to be art.

Monet wasn’t a master because he envisioned the next great artistic program, but rather because he could stop and appreciate what others failed to see.

The modernest as Baudelaire described was not the person caught up in the modern, but the person who could stop to appreciate it, the person who was extremely aware of it.
