1) Do you think that 2-Dimensional representation will remain relevant after 3-Dimensional technologies advance to the point of common use? (I'm talking star-wars style 3D holograms)
2) Photographic truth- What is the level of photographic retouching you are OK with while passing an image off as a photograph and not a digital piece?
3) With the increasing ease of capturing video, do you think digital home video libraries will ever truly replace the photo album? Or is the physical significance of family photos too important to overtake?
1) I believe there is a sentimentality inherent in the human experience, and specifically in the nature of the field of artistic study, which demands a certain amount of reverence for the past even as the advancement of technology seemingly subsumes every other consideration. Two-dimensional art is foundational to the practice of visual art, and I don't believe that three-dimensional rendering, no matter how realistic it may become, will replace the importance of traditional 2-D art as an art form and as a part of art history.
