nostalgia-algorithm (gen-draw II)

nostalgia-algorithm / gen-draw II is a generative drawing work-series i’m already on for quite a while. it’s based on an automated RGB value dependent curve (bezier) drawer. by using different photos, either within a random array or run by manual order (keyboard), i’m weaving image layers or parts of images together.
with the mouse i control the curve radius and stroke width. so the whole process is kind of an action painting, mixing forms and colors and structure, very speedy. mostly it produces much trash, a few to keep…
the motifs came together during my walks in the lake district of brandenburg, north of berlin, during the great summer of 2018.

e-pastel STAR-GRID II

2228_star2_grid_01_0

the e-pastel TAR_GRID series consists of a X Y axis grid of bezier vector curves. a seperate vector curve class defines all vector properties such as color, transparency and/or stroke weight. to later position them within different grid arrays. different keyboard input values are used for a layered image build up; coloring, sizing, transparency, count and density of star pedals…

iteration / structural condensation

22

“structural condensation”  nov. 2013  (english version first)
looking back at my accomplishments over the last years, i recognise apart, from various formal approaches, a continous drive for structural condensation.
for structural condensation up to a point where the shapes begin to apparently depart from their usual meanings and are not clearly perceptible anymore.
In this structural void an entirely new pattern for composing comes into being – an abstraction of fissuring and reformation.
seen in a sober and technical manner, one may perceive the eternal balancing of meaning, magnitude, colours, shades and properties in order to make out a sound in this ravaged chaos.
most like to walking a tight-rope with concrete and depictive dynamics on one side and the white noise of ambientesque or tranceesque rhytmical harmony on the other.

perlin-noise-scape

perlin-noise-scape series, 2010-14the programming (roughly outlined):
an undulatory linear motion of a bumpy bezier circle, which is kneaded by random noise values, increases and decreases in size, and turns around its center.
is further getting its color at each frame from an array, picked out of different photos, each row chooses another photo.
this script is so old and so messy, i changed values and functions over and over again, different errors were showing up, interesting enough to work with…
