Art and technology

As an author published in the wide, wonderful world of electronic books, I often reflect upon how much technology has influenced art. From computer graphics to putting up music videos on YouTube, I would argue that for the most part, technology has been a driving force behind making art more accessible to its audience and thus is beneficial.

These days I am more apt to read books on my computer than acquire paperback books; I find that I am running out of shelf space and running out of space for shelves. Admittedly, a certain degree of environmentalism plays a part; no trees are chopped down to produce an ebook.

Technology, I think, is allowing art to evolve and express itself in different venues. While some may think that picking up a paintbrush is superior to anything created in Photoshop, I believe that each is a valid artist medium.

What do you feel about technology's influence on art? Do you find it to be mostly good, mostly bad, or are you mixed?
