JOHN MAEDA AND CAMILLE UTTERBACK

Maeda and Utterback have alot of the same ideas and views relating people and technology. Both really strive to make technology easy, fun and accessible. Maeda strives to make his advances available to all via the web. Utterback's goal is to make interacting with technology not feel like a chore.

While doing my research I thought it was interesting that Utterback has been influenced by Maeda's work. In one article that I read she stated that she often visited his site. I just thought that was a really neat. I guess it also goes to show how their interest and views about technology seem to be similar.

I believe that both artists are making real strides in this medium. I think it's wonderful that artist are trying to make art accessible to all. I understand being frustrated with technology, and it's hard sometimes. But I really give the two of them props for making technology friendly.
