"Electronic creation as well as consumption"

From the “Print is Dead” blog:

Because the same way that previous generations played with different physical media — from Calder’s mobiles to Matisse’s cut-outs and Rauschenberg’s combines — new generations of artists and designers are using computers and programs like Flash in order to express themselves. In fact, what used to take a myriad of raw materials and a printing press or a silk screen, not to mention an artist’s spacious studio, now can take place within the microchips of a laptop. While select artists and artisans will continue to work with paper and other printed media, more and more artists and designers will choose electronic creation as well as consumption. And today’s thesis “printed out on clean, white paper” is tomorrow’s networked website, full of hyperlinks and comments, easy to share and to access.
