If we continuously call what we do 'computer generated' art, we should get the sneering that term deserves. 'CG' shouldn't be used either. I've mentioned this before but it seems to get lost in the middle of longish threads. If they think a couple of clicks and a few seconds is all that's needed, it's because the industry has given what we do a label which is misleading to people who don't know better. The computer doesn't 'generate' it, we do. The computer just helps us get our vision into pixels. My proposal is that we all start using the term 'computer realized' art. How about it? Did anyone read this message?
