curation

this is a thought a bit broader than curation, but i think it belongs here  b/c this is the only place i think ppl might be curious about it.

i have been swallowing my distaste of & for the (vast) majority of (geometric) generative art for ages now. 

i'm tired of it. not just b/c it isn't 'original'—most of it is nods to things from the 50s, recycled & then recycled again— but because it is context free. it says nothing about the moment & time & how we exist now. it is safe & pseudo-academic—hilarious, as we live in a time that hates academics & 'intellectuals'— & clean & empty.

its main statement is that it is math(s) using a computer.

you see the tool & not much else. 

if there is a history—& future of curating these pieces beyond hyper-niche hedge funds & crypto bros—i think it will be as a juxtaposition to what comes after: art guided & created by & w/ai.
