maybe i dont understand how you define "artist" because i just sent you 
a link to some working artists using pd/framestein.  there are tons of 
real working artists using this stuff.  here's another one (one of my 
favorites) :

its a permanent sound sculpture installation in vienna... i havn't had a 
chacne to see it in person, but you can listen to a live audio stream on 
their site.

i made an installation using pd for a burningman sculpture last year 
(dont have a website yet).

my brother and i did a sound installation for an event in a 130 year old 
abandoned subway tunnel a few months ago.

its definitely for the tech savvy, i'm not sure it will ever not be.  it 
is a media programming language afterall.  i'm sure as time progresses 
we will see things built with pd meant to be used by the less tech savvy.
