I used to sketch all the time as a kid, always working on something, and then I started messing with some computer programs. I really enjoyed the computer for its ability to easily duplicate things and provide guides to assure symmetrical compositions. Woody Vasulka said that he shares the creative process of is work with a machine, his computer, and his explorations with it. I do as well. I still draw on paper sometimes, but with the programs/technology available in the digital area you can do things that are viable in ourcommunication based world.

Our reading tells us that Vasulkas combination of art and computing revealed a finiteness in conjuction to mans image making capabilities. Everyday in some area, technology is becoming capable of revealing our inability to keep up with it. Computers can do many things fasterthan us, and we are adapting with it. Vasulka is said to have approached his machine as a symbiosis. I think that more and more of us, especially digital natives, feel the same.
