I want to mount a small defense (softly? narrowly? I agree with most of your specifics) of the state of the art(s). Not looking for a fight. :)
Procedural art is both new, and it isn't.
There's already a reasonably rich (if still fairly new in the sweep of art history) tradition of procedural art within the broader category of conceptual art. Some simple, accessible examples are Raymond Queneau'
Here 8.06e+67 is 52! (that is, you can shuffle the 52 tracks in any order).
The article includes some technical details about the player implementation, which seems clever (it literally renders a visualization of a deck of cards which get shuffled and turned over and dealt in the browser as it switches from one track to another).
This reminds me a lot of the Oulipo, especially Queneau's Cent mil
我想为艺术（或者说各种艺术形式）的现状稍作辩护（委婉点？小范围点？你大部分具体观点我都同意）。并不是想吵架哈。:) 程序化艺术（Procedural art）既算新，又不算新。 在观念艺术这个大类别下，程序化艺术其实已经有相当丰富（尽管在漫长的艺术史长河中仍算比较新颖）的传统了。一些简单浅显的例子有雷蒙·格诺（Raymond Queneau）……

这里的 8.06e+67 就是 52!（也就是说，你可以按任意顺序随机播放这 52 首曲目）。 文章里包含了一些关于播放器实现的技术细节，看起来很巧妙（它真的在浏览器里渲染了一副扑克牌的可视化效果，在从一首曲目切换到另一首时，扑克牌会被洗牌、翻面、发牌）。 这让我想起了很多乌力波（Oulipo）的东西，尤其是格诺的《百亿……
