Image processing is horrible, computers are too slow. What happened to Moore's law? I'm going to write a manifesto for slow computing and art based on it. Like, screw real-time, just let computers work at their own "native" speed. If you get one frame per ten seconds, then that's what humans have to grok. Just look at the thing longer and be patient.

@sciss I wrote a "Detritus Manifesto"¹ like 12 years ago along these lines. If you want something more recent and rigorous @manetta pointed me to the "Minimal Computing"² movement. (she may have more slow computing ideas). I've always been a fan of "rustic computing" so if you want to collaborate on a little polemic, just say the word.
