Three-dimensional (3D) animation means that viewers can see the characters move around and interact with their surroundings. 利用3D动画技术，观赏者可以看到画中的人物四处走动并与周围事物互动。
Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. 我们不仅可以与艺术作品互动，还可以参与艺术作品的创作。
With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides.通过触手可及的新兴科技工具，越来越多的人开始发掘自己创新的一面
A recent project used technology and data in the same way that Rembrandt used his paints and brushes. 最近有一个项目用科技手段和数据还原了伦勃朗的绘画方式。
The end result, printed in 3D, was a new “Rembrandt painting” created 347 years after the artist’s death. 最终，通过3D打印技术，在这位艺术家去世347年后，一幅全新的“伦勃朗画作”诞生了。
These advances are perhaps bringing us closer to a time when computers rather than humans create art.这些先进的技术正带领我们走进一个由电脑而非人类创造艺术的时代。
Where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess.科技将会推动艺术发展至何种地步，我们不得而知。
