Digital artist, digital art?

$fractal art$

I wonder, if passed the 90s fascination about new economy, the wonders of tele- remote working, Web 2.0, the "virtual", it still makes sense to talk about digital artist and analogue artist (or better traditional).

According to a dated and canonical definition, the digital artist uses the computer (in a non-trivial way) as a creative tool, creating completely synthetic works, or manipulating the traditional media (see Wikipedia).

I personally could be partially agreed only when we talk about art generative or mathematics, such as fractal art:

Arts and Media, Digital art and computer, poetry and paper: an useless and redundant controversy

A sheet of paper can be used in various ways : To write a shopping list, for example . Or to wrap the eggs.

Or again, to write a poem, or make a sketch .

We live in an age of relativism , in which everything can be everything. .

So maybe , brandishing the butcher's bill , and placing it within a frame, in the context of a show, someone will say " this is art ."
