Computers make things faster, that's all. I think if the Sistine chapel were painted with the help of a computer it wouldn't of taken 23 years. Having said that it would not be anyone who bought a program who could wheel that mouse. Now as then it would take one gifted human being to do that. He had the vision. When a computer has vision you can start worrying. Few humans have artistic vision as it is and fewer have the vision of a Michelangelo, Mozart, etc.

Now imagine the volumes of work Michelangelo would of produced with a Mac. If he lived long enough he probably would of invented the damn thing.

Imagination, vision, remorse, love, human things.

Thanks. Very cool sounds, compositions, and ESA sound bites.

A retro tongue in cheek vid, that sort of illustrates how things may in fact be getting easier, but why also, I think graphic arts in general, used to be more $$ valuable ... that is, it took laborious time, skill, and numerous people to do.

Ah, I remember the good old days . . . . .

now how cool is this

lol, yeah way cool, just like those Letraset rub off letters in the upper right hand box. Using them took days to do a simple page layout.

And GOD how we hated them . . . . .
