something to share
just came to me
reading what i've just read:
________the eye can reflect an image, but it doesn't mean that the thing
reflected is "percieve".
... gombrich again
percieving - art or science
still thinking about A or B,
still unable to think A and B simultaneously
percieving programming as art is an art
percieving programming as art is a science
percieving programming as science is an art
percieving programming as science is a science
...
... someone talked about games, the coding of games...
i understand it is the same, isn't it?
code ---> interface (to read, to modify pictures, to play games... )
mac and windows introduced interfaces; linux is pure code again...
almost all operating system have an interface
only pure code without interfaces is art-science
???

There's similarities between composition in programming and painting or
for that matter anything that involves fixing seperate entities together
to create combined forms/structures/functions. and you can appreciate it
for yourself, as a programmer atleast, when working on a piece of code,
when the whole thing comes together after focusing on a specific aspect
to do such and such (maybe a generalised function for handling x & y &
z), when after, when it works, suddenly realise that by making it work
you've opened up a whole set of possibilities previously outside your
awareness. then it can seem like art.
