I think that in our modern society, art has expanded savagely. Human beings are nowadays able to express their creative ideas also using machines. This cartoon shows how far has art gone, and how easily we can get confused with this interaction between art and technology.

On the other hand, design within technology development also has brought an artistic touch to some of the machines that we commonly see. I am not recalling the Manifesto of Futurism theory that stated that a "roaring car that seems to ride on grapeshot is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace", but I have to admit that some modern machines (cars, home appliances, modern buildings, etc) simply look graceful.
