...thankfully so.
Hiyas all around, as I've been all around and now here!
Having recently returned to digital imagery, this forum "appeared" in a Google I'd prompted.
After reading through a few random threads herein, I am encouraged by dialog not so /rabid/, but appropriately ratiocinated/measured/respectful.
While my work is largely the use of Open Source software, I remain an artist with all that term drags behind it. And as an artist, one must make do, no?
So, am I soley in the digital fray? No. I drop a needle to disk often, and seek written word--if not present for those spoken. Am I anti-digital? No. The tactile presents one of many forms, and the eye senses both that on the screen, and that held in hand... or in the lived variable plane of the perceived.
Now, place a "camera" in this "lived variable plane of the perceived", as we all have done, and now we are "twee", or "twixed": both in and "in". Learning to see what is seen art is.
Thanks for letting me,
Dave
