Zenarchery

Here’s the intro for my new Flash portfolio. I’m madly proud of this. (And no, it’s not done, and yes, I know there’s a single pixel-wide line on the right.)
It’s a ridiculously labor-intensive piece, created in Cinema 4D, Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash. I had to hand-trace each of 240 frames of exported animation from Cinema [...]

Here’s a picture of me, taken by the lovely Republic of Seana at First Friday. You can sorta see my projected art in the background.

And yes, that’s a cross around my neck. And no, I haven’t turned Christian. It’s my good luck cross.

New Processing piece: Giger Marble. It’s based off of, well, a bunch of Jared Tarbell’s code and ideas, so no real credit to me here, other than figuring out how to do everything but the color scheme without looking at his code at all.
Pretty, though. It takes its color palette from H.R. Giger’s Brain Salad [...]

Thank you so much to everybody who stopped by my little projection show at First Friday last night! It meant a lot to me that y’all showed up. I was pretty happy with how it turned out — despite the fact that I had klieg lights pointed at my screen, which made it kinda hard [...]

Just a reminder: I’ll be showing video projections and selling prints of some of my generative art at First Friday tonight, starting around 5pm, at the outdoor festival grounds between Casino Center and Colorado. Come down, check it out, buy some prints, have some beer, have some fun.

All These Worlds Are Yours I is another generative Flash piece. Very simple, but I like it — it produces extremely iconic images.
And yes, before anyone says it, I was definitely thinking of that sequence in 2001: A Space Odyssey, even though the title is taken from 2010: The Year We Make Contact.

Mistaken For Strangers[2]

Image detail.
This series of 16 prints utilizes Perlin noise (similar to my flow field animations) to set the size, color, transparency and rotation of almost 40,000 rounded rectangles. (The title has no relation to the process — it’s just a song by The National that I’m really digging on these days.)
I’ll be displaying [...]

Thanks to Jennifer and Brian Henry, I’ll be having my first art show EVER at First Friday, February 1st. I’ll be displaying and selling prints of various generative pieces like Jellyfish, and I’ll also be projecting video of the pieces being generated, probably with my music as well.
I’ll be at the outdoor festival grounds at [...]

I updated the Jellyfish piece — changed the dimensions to make it wider than taller, and added some cool random blurry background circles in shades of blue and green.
Also, I should probably explain what the hell this actually is: it’s a Flash app that uses Actionscript to algorithmically generate the “jellyfish”. There are separate functions [...]
