Goal: To combine my background in Computer Science and Visual Arts to create computationally generated art work. This will result in an exhibition of images, animations, and interactive pieces.
Method: All of the pieces were created using a programming language called Processing. This program allowed the focus of my coding to be on the visual results rather than syntax and technical matters.
Conway’s Game of Life: Based on the common cellular autonoma exercise, I created 3D representations of the different generations of the Game of Life, and turned them into intriguing still images.
Music Visualizations and Drawings: These pieces use FFT to retrieve frequencies from songs to create animations and illustrations. The generative graphics are synced to the music and displayed in real time.
Jabber: This interactive piece displays a portrait on the wall. When a viewer speaks, it triggers an animation and audio.
Other work: In addition to other renditions of the above pieces, there are three other mini-projects. These include an interactive drawing machine, a self-portrait, and still images of musical soundtracks.
