Kinda like halftone too.

#4> When he started out, Hart was only able to inject a few cells at a time before having to step back to review his progress. He’s since invented a computer algorithm that gives him a working bird’s eye view. While it makes the process faster, it’s still time-consuming.
A cool hacker project would be to make a “bubble printer” with an automatic injector that given an image will try to reproduce it in bubble wrap.

I agree with you. At the same time, I suspect that the act of filling each bubble by hand is an important part of the process for this artist.

#6I love art like this, but does it require any special skill?
Color data for each bubble can be generated using a python script. Palette can also be generated computationally.
I am not diminishing the artists work or effort, but in the future, will art be prized for skill and novelty? Or will it be dismissed as "anyone can do that" ?

Another cool hack would be to generate a color palette paint generator. A smaller version of those used for house painting colors.

As many people as you ask you'll probably get that many answers of what defines art. As for people dismissing art as "anyone can do that" that's been happening for decades now. There's a lot of different types of art; some is about an idea, some is about technique in capturing a scene, or trying to invoke a certain reaction/emotion.
As for skill who cares many people could have done this but this is the person who did these and they're neat and interesting. There's room for all sorts of art/games/movies why try to gatekeep what is really art or something?
Most generations there's a good chunk that looks back and say "now that was real _____, not like what they're making today." And every generation what was the true version of the thing changes, it's more nostalgia than anything it seems.
> I am not diminishing the artists work or effort
Well... you are by saying 'anyone could do this' and implying it doesn't require special skill.

This reminds me of Sol LeWitt. Some of his art is just a simple set of instructions that can be followed by other people to "install" by strictly following them and drawing on walls [1].
There are a lot more examples in art that many people could replicate easily, but only the artist came up with the idea.

#10Can it be purchased as NFT, tho?
That is the real question.
