Today's technology offers the simplest production path without the need to understand our works creation and distribution infrastructure and algorithms. Commercial and popular tools greatly affect production and conceptualization, implementing artistic standards that encourage reliance without understanding technological processes, embracing techno-optimist consumerism and commodification, and short-term sustainability of artistic production.
