I always thought creating art with codes is what happened in Walt Disney Studio Research in 1970's. And that its an era of 3DS Max, mordern graphics rendering engine, Flash and Sprites etc. I was proved wrong at FOSS.IN opensource by a hacker named Gene Kogan.
Take a look at: http://hasgeek.tv/fossdotin/2012-1/114-gene-kogan-hackernote-day-1-how-open-source-software-has-upended-art
Gene, is an artist, an opensource hacktivisit. Find him in genekogan.com. He blasted the hackernote session on DAY1 at Foss.in, at Bangalore. This guy loves art and is persuing a line of creating art with http://openprocessing.org/. He calls himself a Applied Mathamatics Guy and not a S/W Developer, but he definitely boggles out better s/w developers.

The Next Day i met him personally at the hackspace. To Discuss the Logger Tool he created for logging his day to day life. https://github.com/genekogan/logger
I actually started corresponding to him regarding suggestions and how it can be converted into a nice piece of service and a social media platform. Though insisted on the fact that he required nothing more than a way to log his life. But he was so happy that somebody had shown interest in his work and was willing to work in this venture. He was open to all changes, also told about the list of changes he is gonna release in coming days.
This guy is an example of what i liked to be, what i used to be. It is fun writing softwares to address own problems rather than problems of the mass domain and big corporates. Its so much fun, when u are the user of your own software. I wish him good luck in future endeavors with a hope to work full time with him someday.
