If This Then That: Pigeons

Because I'm a bird-brain.

So I made a recipe that tells me about pigeon videos.

As for Jim Campbell’s Formula for Computer Art, I believe that as long as there are connections to be made between disparate sources, there will always be a way to do the unexpected with well-known tools and formulae. Jack Burnham’s opinion piece, Art and the API, focuses on the potential ramifications of these “connections”, and serves as a fair rebuttal to Campbell’s implied assertion that computer art is dull and repetitive. However, Campbell does have a point in showing that a lot of computer-based art is similar, but not everything is as simple as pure input/output, especially when dynamic feedback is involved.

(To be clear, I am not holding up my use of IFTTT as an example. Pigeons may be dynamic in flight, but my recipe certainly isn’t.)
