Roland Piquepaille writes, "According to a St.
Louis Post-Dispatch article, computer scientists at the Washington
University in Saint-Louis (WUSTL) have built a robot that makes drip
paintings like Jackson Pollock's -- who was also known as 'Jack the
Dripper.' The robot, dubbed Action
Jackson, can finish an 'artwork' in
just minutes, like Jackson Pollock probably did. But the paintings by
this robot can be bought for about $10, which is far from the whopping
$140 million price paid last year for "No 5, 1948." Anyway, the article
raises an interesting question: who is the artist, the software designer
or the robot?" For more details on Action Jackson, see Roland's blog
