Interesting article with complex social, biological, as well as aesthetic implications into the future. . . . Obviously, capturing imagery is a far cry from understanding the complexities of 'thought,' and it's still very futuristic, but as we conceivably 'think' to each other, or project our thought/images, there would have to be resultant changes in consciousness, and the role of the artist would necessarily be re-defined along with everything/everyone else. "Direct" visual art? Ultimate loss of the artisanal? And/or a revitalizing of same? I realize this has little or no immediate relevance to anyone here (probably), but it showed up in my email and I just thought some frameworkers would possibly find it interesting as well:
