I was extremely satisfied with how this project turned out. I was glad that I was able to pursue a new direction and explore the various forms of generative art. I was also happy that I decided to scale up and create larger works. It allowed me to create more intricate compositions Read more →

I decided to abandoned one of my previously discussed direction of: “Destruction from the point of view of a computer algorithm is data-moshing.” as I was running out of time to complete the series. I realized that I had quite a bit of experimentation and testing that had not been done to create a work that I would be satisfied with. Read more →

For this composition, I will be tackling the idea of: “Chaos from the point of view of a computer algorithm is random generation.”

Random Generation is a computational algorithm designed to generate a sequence of numbers or symbols that can not be reasonably predicted better than by random chance. The success of a random generation algorithm is determined by the number of Read more →

For the second idea, I was extremely excited to use the Fleen software that I had recently discovered. What made this all the more special was that this software was created by a fellow artist. The program was written with the sole intention of making art.

The program is based on an algorithm that begins with a root shape. This shape is Read more →

Here are some thumbnails of the creation process. I have documented the different stages, from the start to the finish. The different sorting results were imported into Photoshop and composited together. I also made the image black and white to resolve the color differences between my source images. I also felt that the series would look more cohesive if all the Read more →

While working on the series, I consulted Ina to see if I could work on a larger scale. I wanted to have the works be detailed and intricate and thought that the larger size will be able to do justice to the compositions. I decided that working on A3 for my final works would be an ideal size. With this decided, Read more →

I took some time to really look through and understand the brief. But I felt that I kept coming short of the objective of the brief. This was mainly due to limits and constraints placed on the points of view. One of the only things that I felt sure about was the execution and creative direction that I wanted to undertake Read more →

Created these trippy patterns. Am I high yet.
