Astra's answer on automating art: the creative process is where the meaning lives
keenanisalive · x · 2026-10-15
A screenshot of Astra's response to "Artists would be happier if their art could be created automatically—correct?"
Astra disagrees: the drive to make art is rooted in the process of creation, not possessing a finished product. The manual effort, problem-solving and tactile engagement are exactly where meaning and satisfaction reside; bypassing the journey removes the expressive flow that makes the practice fulfilling.
