@Gargron So far, it’s been more or less a hobby of mine. The programmer and computer scientist in me is more fascinated by how it works internally and what I can make it do than in the output it generates; meanwhile, the creative spirit in me is more interested in what it synthesises out of the large amounts of digital art I’ve created, edited, composited, et cetera, and fed into it.
Point is, these two things don’t have to exist in opposition.
