“ This is one of the interesting things about generative systems, is that they depend a lot on the observer as well. So, one of the things a lot of my work counts on is the idea that if you put something onto a CD, people will tend to think it’s probably music. But it’s funny, it’s like if you put something in a frame and hang it in an art gallery, people will think it’s a painting, and they’ll reserve a special kind of attention for that, which they don’t give to computer screens or… their shoes… or whatever.
— Brian Eno (speaking on generative systems with Will Wright) source
