1. What methods did they use to create the artworks
2. Do you think technology can be considered a form of art
I think technology can be considered as a form of art. For example, cameras are more accurate and faster, they are the invention of human beings as well as the fruit of our inspiration. However, when people paint with their hands, they are perhaps getting more satisfaction from their hard work. Therefore, when traditional ways of painting or modern photography co-exist with technology, the combination is one that promises great possibilities, as well as surprises.
Various answers are welcome as long as you provide reasons!

What’s their function
They can engage the readers, create a sense of curiosity and invite them to consider what art really is.
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colourful floating clouds when they are lit up at night. Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it, they could also interact with it – literally. They did this by using their phones to change its colours and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art
