What is the core difference between technology and art?

The connection and difference between art and technology. Generally speaking, art and technology are both related and different. From the perspective of human cultural history, art and science have long been linked. As early as the sixth century BC, the Pythagorean school of ancient Greece put forward the idea that "beauty is harmony" and applied these principles to architecture, sculpture, painting, music and other arts. During the European Renaissance from14th century to16th century, natural science developed greatly, and Copernicus's "Heliocentrism" dealt a heavy blow to the religious legend that God created the world for thousands of years. Columbus, Magellan and others were geographers. As well as Galileo's creation and invention in mathematical physics, people have a new understanding of the universe, formed a new world view and methodology, and also had a great influence on art. Some great artists in this period were great scientists themselves, and they applied many natural science methods and principles to artistic creation, which promoted the perfection and development of art.

These examples fully show that the influence of science and technology on art is extensive and profound. In addition to directly applying the achievements of natural science to the art field, it is more important to promote the change of artists' cultural psychological structure with scientific thinking methods, thus promoting the innovation of artistic creation concepts and methods and promoting the development of artistic forms.

Nowadays, science and technology are advancing by leaps and bounds at an unprecedented speed, and all aspects of human social life are affected by science and technology. Modern science and technology have a great influence on art, which not only provides unprecedented mass media for art, but also creates new art types and art forms, such as film art, television art and computer multimedia art. In many fields and aspects, science and technology have been so closely combined with art that it is difficult to distinguish them.

There is indeed a great difference between art and technology, and they are antagonistic to some extent. Science is the sum of human knowledge about the objective world. Art is the highest form of human aesthetic creation. Seeking truth scientifically reveals the objective law of the development of things. Art pursues beauty to meet people's aesthetic needs in spiritual and cultural life. Science mainly uses abstract thinking and emphasizes rational factors. Art mainly uses image thinking, emphasizes emotional factors, treats things scientifically, objectively and calmly, and accurately reveals their true colors; On the other hand, art is a creative activity with strong subjective color. In addition to reflecting life, we should also evaluate life and express emotions. Scientific theories are universally applicable. A work of art must be original, unprecedented and unprecedented.
