The founder of DeviantArt is making a $22,000 display for digital art | TechCrunch
Briefly

Angelo Sotira, founder of DeviantArt, has launched Layer, an advanced screen for displaying digital art. Positioned as a high-end product at $22,000, Layer is designed to showcase digital works, particularly generative AI art, in an aesthetically pleasing manner that integrates into environments. Unlike existing displays, Layer does not strive to emulate static art but instead accommodates dynamic digital pieces, requiring substantial computing power for its unique offerings. Sotira collaborates with artists utilizing their own codes to create changing artworks, emphasizing the need for high-quality display technology in the evolving digital art landscape.
"The way that the canvas needs to perform and behave in your life is quite different than other types of displays," Sotira told TechCrunch. "It needs to blend into beautiful environments."
"They're $22,000, so that kind of tells you a lot about who that's for," Sotira said. "We spared no expense and we spared no effort. We made no compromise in producing what is actually, in our opinion, the very best way to display digital art on a wall."
