# Term: Computer art - digital

### Definition: A method of producing art
 by a programmed computer, the term dates to the mid 1960s.  Results are often regarded as beautiful and creative.  Because of the wide range of variations, computer art has no consistent style nor can traditional criteria be applied to its production.  Some regard Computer Art as inferior or not legitimate art because it is not generated from human creativity, but others are fascinated by it because of its innovation of bringing together in a 'creative' way elements of the sciences and humanities.  Madrid University in Spain has had a collaborative program between artists and mathematicians, and Buenos Aires and Amsterdam as well as universities in Italy and Germany have computer-art centers.  The 1970 Venice Biennale initiated a section on Computer Art.  Early United States exhibitions included the "World Exhibition of Computer Graphics" at Howard Wise Gallery, New York in 1965, and in 1966, a traveling exhibition was sponsored by the Western Assocation of Art.  American computer artists include Arthur Brody, Jeff Flower, Melissa Zink, , Peter Bardazzi, Neil Meitzler, Carol, Flax, Patti Held, Leroy Lamis, Frahn Koerner and Jeffrey Shaw.

# Art Word of the Day
___

Every day I make an attempt to add a little bit more art knowledge to the Internet, one word at a time. Realizing there aren’t many *comprehensive* and *complete* online art dictionaries, I set out on a mission to compile [my own](https://artterms.artopium.com).

[SteemAX](https://www.steemax.trade) helps minnow content-creators and whale curators by automating an exchange of upvotes between their quality blog posts, allowing both 1 to 1 as well as disproportional exchanges that grant bigger curations, better support than a bid bot, and the long-term support they both deserve.

***"Why would you want that"***, you might ask. Good question. But to understand the answer consider for a moment that the Steem blockchain has been designed to be intrinsically capitalistic. Meaning those who invest their own money (or find money to invest) into Steem Power are going to make more money then those who don't. Although Steem was created to be capitalistic, very few "open markets" exist on the platform. Of those markets, the only thing traded is Steem for something. Steem for a vote. Steem for SBD. Steem for Steem Power. But the Steem ecosystem has more that can be traded. How about trading your vote for a vote, instead of for Steem? Now what if that turned into a long term support of traded votes? Voila: [www.SteemAX.trade](https://www.steemax.trade).

Version 1.6 of SteemAX has just been released! Users can now automatically accept 1:1 ratio invites, as well as set your vote power threshold in the new settings options. And of course SteemAX lets you batch send and accept invites now, making the process of finding exchange partners much easier. Speaking of which, check out [SteemAX new top users page](https://www.steemax.info/users) to find even more exchange partners!
