Bill Gates has a silly digital art system in mind, I think he has already installed it in his house. Apparently BIIIGGGG LCD screens are mounted on his wall instead of artwork, and he has digital reproductions of artwork programmed to be displayed on these screens. He also just bought a Leonardo Codex (the Hammer?). I don't know what he plans to do with that, probably donate it or loan it to a museum. I'd be curious about that, if anyone has any info. His whole concept of digital artwork, which he has been talking about for years, makes me shudder. It's always amazing to me that people with tremendous capacities in one area could be such dummies in other areas. Witness Woody Allen, OJ Simpson, your local computer nerd....Yes, I realize that this is opinion. No offense to anyone (certainly not BG, WA or OJ!). Eric Siegel [log in to unmask]
