New technologies always make things possible that you weren’t able to do before and ideally augment existing skills. Aerial/drone photography (and of course, crane shots) with high resolution at big print sizes is always visually compelling. But the issue I have with new tools is that they become overused and quickly become cliches. What I think is more interesting is to use new technologies in ways they weren't intended. I think that’s where cutting-edge art is. If you push technology to its extremes you might see what its flaws are as well. That’s a way to “reveal” it.
Artists are "revealers". Machines can do this as well, but then it's a matter of noticing where the aesthetics and/or conceptual ideas are and revealing them in such a way that it is cognitively powerful.
Robert Rauschenberg, Erased de Kooning
Takeaway:
Artists are 'packagers' of ideas. Once a piece of art is finished and framed, it is resolved and packaged for use (viewing). Raw data, including billions of images with no organization, are unpackaged. Packaged photography is typically a singular element on a wall with some other elements in context with it.
