What is the difference between using digital technologies as a tool versus as a medium? Nothin i suppose. Although it depends on the outcome of the project you are working on. If you have the intention to make something creative and artistic then your using the digital technologie as a medium and a tool, rather then just one or the other.
This question can calso have the what came first the chicken or the egg. If the artwork is of a digital medium was it used as a tool? And vice versa. The questions answer is all in the beholder. If I make a piece of art out of paintburshes rather then with paint brushes is the end result just a mess, or is it art? Tools are essential in creating anything, and can come in any form. In the digital realm the idea of tools is a bit more clear then in conventional art and abstract art. But it doesnt mean that it cant go both ways.
