All great points. Software is regarded by many as a science, art, trade, and craft all in one. Some software does have a wow factor. Games are like that, but much other software is deeply utilitarian. I wonder, too, about the usefulness of distinguishing art from craft, or artist from artisan. The fine arts, whose end is the beautiful ("that which, being seen, pleases"), and the other arts, whose end is service to people. |
