I'm an artist.
My name is [[Colin Goldberg]], and I am an artist, curator, and designer. My work is primarily concerned with the relationship between art and technology.

Since 2011, I have been involved in the development of ''Techspressionism'', which began as a portmanteau of "Technology" and "Expressionism" that I initially created in 2011 to describe my personal artistic output.

I feel that an accurate current definition of Techspressionism is that it is a '''community of artists.'''

[[Christiane Paul (curator)|Christiane Paul]], Digital Art Curator at the [[Whitney Museum]], stated in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8Glurhxyms&t=1478s roundtable discussion on Techspressionism] (which I moderated):
:"''One thing that I like about [[Techspressionism]] is that as a term, it can transcend boundaries, and in terms of the question of whether we need to clearly delineate things, I am all for openness, and I think Techspressionism already fulfills an important function if there are artists aligning themselves with that term and finding a platform to discuss issues that are relevant to their work; that is always a function that makes a term valuable.''"

The artist community organized [https://www.southamptonartscenter.org/techspressionism exhibitions] and other activities, such as our [https://techspressionism.com/salon/ Techspressionist Salons], which are monthly international artist meetups on Zoom. More than 80 of them are archived [https://techspressionism.com/salon/ here].

There is currently an [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Techspressionism|ongoing debate]] as to whether the article for [[Techspressionism]] should remain on Wikipedia. The same editor has also recently called into question the term's [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Techspressionism inclusion in Wiktionary].

With regards to current usage of the term, an example is its use as a hashtag by artists who identify with the term. You can see the usage of the term as a hashtag on Instagram (on 70k+ posts) [https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/techspressionism here].

I also feel strongly about Techspressionism's value as a [https://techspressionism.com/artists/ global community of artists] sharing a common interest in the relationship between art and technology.

I invite any contributors to participate in the article's [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Techspressionism|ongoing debate]], as I strongly believe in the value of consensus. I would also invite contributors to directly edit [[Techspressionism|the article on Techspressionism]] or the [[Colin Goldberg|article on me]] in order to improve their sourcing and neutrality.

At the recommendation of a fellow Wikipedian with more experience than myself, I have added the following COI declarations below for transparency.
