Hello, tried to install but the install button seems to do nothing. The App Store link in the title says it’s not available where I am (UK). Happy to try it when this is sorted.

> I understand artists etc. Talking about AI in a negative sense, because they don’t really get it completely, or just it’s against their self interest which means they find bad arguments to support their own interest subconsciously.

This is an extremely crude characterisation of what many people feel. Plenty of artists oppose copyright-ignoring generative AI and "get" it perfectly, even use it in art, but in ways that avoid the lazy gold-rush mentality we're seeing now.

Looks great, looking forward to digging in. I had a similar idea a while back (B.A., before agents) but it seemed too big to take on. Was this able to be realised due to agentic coding?

Doubt it, based on my ccusage output. I do about the monthly charge in tokens in a day.

Thanks for giving this a more historical framing. Capabilities seem to be something system designers should be a lot more familiar with.

Legrady belongs to the first generation of photographic-based artists to integrate computational processes in the mid-1980s for creating “Born-Digital” visualizations. His current artistic and research projects explore algorithmic processes for photographic imaging and data visualization through semantic categorization and self-organizing systems, interactive computational-based art installations, and mixed-realities narrative development. A key focus is the creative potential of such technologies for aesthetic coherence and expression.

Why is something this interesting and full of good ideas invisible on HN? The idea of computation around us, like street lights, has so much promise.
