Digital art with a minimal approach, an idea I've been investigating since around 1999. Less is more, yada yada yada. The reasons for doing so are rather multifarious. Wrote a little bit about this topic alongside some art in an online magazine in 2006. One feeling has been, the less you do with technology, the less future maintenance it will require, and thus the longer it might last. Another is that I employ tech simplicity as a counterbalance to its ever-increasing complexity, usage, and proliferation. Admitting an addiction to technology/gadgets yet not wanting to abandon them completely, I've chosen the middle path. From a design standpoint, I've argued that it works because people are so overwhelmed with tools and information. Lately I see lots of other folks coming to this same conclusion.
