ABSTRACT
Drawing Tool is a conceptual art piece intended to provoke discussion on the subject of authorship and originality through the means of an interactive experience, by taking the familiar experience of photography and translating it to the quintessentially creative domain of drawing. The goal is to create a cognitive dissonance that would encourage reflection on the experience.
At the same time, Drawing Tool has a practical use as a tool for assisted drawing. In a similar way to how one would use a camera to take a photo of an existing scene, Drawing Tool may be used for creative tracing of a predetermined pattern. While the machine controls the larger scale composition, the user is free to exercise their full creative freedom over the details of the drawing.
