Words are so embarrassing

Why would anyone extrude two hundred thousand acrylic dots from a cake decorator to make a painting? I choose these impractical means in order to conflate a mechanical process with one of painterly intuition. I am interested in giving the viewer a false sense of familiarity by combining digital imagery that is at times recognizable with a painting process, which is not.
