Digimag 60 - December 2010/January 2011
http://www.digicult.it/digimag_eng/


"...The history of code in culture has followed a line of increased access 
since the first digital computers. Now, for the first time, we have a large 
group of artists, designers, and architects who code extremely well, but who 
aren't programmers by profession. They are first and foremost artists, 
designers, and architects, but they use code as an integral part of how they 
think and make. (The same is true in the sciences and academic humanities.) 
We're excited about the emergence of a programming culture that's unique to 
the visuals arts. The arts have borrowed too much of the tools and culture 
from the sciences, the birthplace of computers. The arts rely too heavily on 
the constrained software tools produced by companies like Adobe. We hope to 
see new ways of thinking about code and new tools that map better to how 
people in the visual arts think and make. Perhaps the sciences and other 
disciplines will be able to gain a new understanding of software by looking 
at how it is used in the arts; learn from how artists articulate and 
approach problems in different ways.."

Casey Reas & William McChandler, from "The Machine that makes Art. Form+Code 
in art, design and architecture" - by Sabina Barcucci & Bertram Niessen
