By itself, I would say engineering is not art. The tools of the engineering discipline can be used to create art, though. Video games, interactive displays, generative media, etc.--as outputs rather than processes--can definitely qualify as artistic in nature.
Using engineering skills and tools for artistic purpose is one of my biggest hobbies.
Please don't hammer the latter one too hard. It's Rust, but not load tested (also on a shared sever). I'm also working on an improved speech algorithm that I hope to finish this weekend. So yeah, please don't kill it or share beyond HN. (Comments and criticism welcome.)
