I was about to invent generative art that looks different based on time and geographic coordinates, but then I realized that the main point of my art is that it gives full control to the viewer. I want time and space to be irrelevant.

Selling physical artworks makes no sense if you compare it to the software industry or even to real estate investing where most profits come in the form of rent, not ownership transfer. Leasing artworks instead of selling them appears to be the logical solution but it's not very practical yet. I'm looking for ways to standardize this practice. One aspect would be to use a well-known, battle-tested lease contract similar to the well-known free software licenses (GPL, BSD, ...). Any pointers or suggestions? I want to end artist exploitation.

Google Maps is thanking me for leaving an excellent review for r2c https://www.google.com/search?q=r2c

"This painting could have been a photo."

is the art equivalent of "this meeting could have been an email".

Candy cap #mushrooms in the neighborhood. The owner of the patch had no idea! They're very fragrant mushrooms once dried. Their smell is reminiscent of maple syrup. They go for about $1/g on eBay ($30/oz)!
