The definition of an artist is wide-ranging and covers a broad spectrum of activities to do with creating art, practicing the arts and/or demonstrating an art. The normal meaning in both everyday speech and academic discourse is a practitioner in the visual arts only. The term is often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (less often for actors). "Artiste" (the French for artist) is a variant used in English only in this context. Use of the term to describe writers, for example, is certainly valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like criticism.

Typewriter Artist Paul Smith, the Typewriter artist. Originally aired March-April of 1976 on KOIN-TV in Portland Oregon. At-Large Reporter Ray Summers wrote and narrated. I shot, edited and selected the music. Ray learned about Paul from a newspaper feature in the Roseburg, Oregon newspaper. Ray and I roamed Southern Oregon for a week in February and dropped by the Roseburg nursing home one wintry morn. We were in and out in 90 minutes, but what we captured was an amazing story on many levels. I shot the story with a single system Frezzolini 16mm film camera. I shot daylight Ektachrome with dichroic filters on my lights since so much daylight was coming in the windows. I put an ECM-50 microphone inside Paul's typewriter to capture the sound. I got the music from my personal library. A week or two later, Assignment Editor Norm Gunning gave me a whole day to cut this piece. I synched 4 reels of film and sound and pretaped to 2 inch tape. By the reaction of the crew we knew we had a special piece. I submitted the piece to the National Press Photographer Association's 2nd quarter clip contest in 1976. It won 1st place nationally as the best television news story. It had been lost on 3/4" Beta tape in my hot attic for years. I just bought an used 3/4" deck off ebay and recorded this story to my computer. It suffers a bit from generation loss. I count 3 generations: film, 2 inch tape, 3/4" tape. Enjoy.
