The use of coding is a new concept to me, and something that I did not know anything about upon entering in this class. In this article, it calls on the reader to ask why if technology is so prevalent in our every day lives, have we not evolved into making more digital art? Though I have found the pieces we have looked at in class to be very interesting, this type of art is somewhat foreign to me as I am also new to the digital world of art. I believe that it is becoming more relevant but is having a slower process towards being recognized by the masses. This may be because we have conditioned ourselves to only see art in its most traditional form, or if people simply are not educated enough to understand the new technology and how it can be used to create art. I personally was unaware that you could create audio through coding, and I believe that a large portion of the population would also be unaware to this ability to make audio through coding.
