To me, art must include a person’s perspective on the world. If a machine creates the exact same thing as a human, the human one would be called art, and the other a print.
When a human uses machines to create art (ex: techno music), it’s harder for me to recognize it as art, but it can still happen.
I just got a new raincoat. Now every time it rains i get some dopamine!
I always found this study to be lacking…
5 minutes is not worth 1 marshmallow. Marshmallows are not that good, so one is way enough. As a kid, I could never trust adults who wanted to limit good things. Who’s to say the strange adult in a white coat would really bring a 2nd marshmallow? What if they actually remove the marshmallow instead?
In short, it can only separate kids in two groups: the blind followers of authority and the other ones.
The meaning can also be literal if you interpret it using quantum physics. Observing the quantum state of a molecule will collapse its wavefunction in the most likely state, which is the same state it was in if you observed it mere instants ago.
