How I Drew One Of My Pictures
15th Nov. 2004
The concept of value, as bestowed by authenticity is only inherent when a work is unique and (mostly) irreproducible in it's native medium. Think of a famous painting: only the original canvas can demand such high prices.
In a new, digital medium, the final work is generally not valued in the same way. A stretch of video art can be copied infinitely [2] - how can one place a value onto it? Instead, the process becomes valued. We consider the process of creation and creativity to be valued in the place of authenticity.
We might consider net.art to be valuable, only because we can appreciate the value of the process that went into making it.
So it would be a logical conclusion that the complexity or "authenticity" of the process bestows value upon the resulting work. The process must be artistically rigorous and intricate.
