The framework
The Taxonomy of Abstraction, its dimensions, its vocabulary and the ArtGram it draws are my own work, built by hand over years of looking at paintings. AI did not invent them, and it does not change them.
The readings
ArtGraph uses AI to help put a painting into words: a first draft of how it reads along each dimension. I review the readings, and the language they use is the language the framework gives them. Let the machine check the work; never let it sign it.
The paintings
The paintings this site reads are mine, made by hand in my studio in Phoenix, with paint, thread and gravity. No AI is used to make them.
The writing
I use AI to help draft and edit some of the essays and pages on this site. I rewrite before anything goes out, and if you ask, I will always tell you.
The books
How AI was part of The Shape of Seeing and The Unalgorithmic Self, and of the audiobooks, is set out on rituart.com/ai.
