Sheets

Heft
Sheets is a generative artwork that displays the explicit mathematical logic underlying its own visuals. Revealing the data that drives the artwork, as part of the artwork itself, is a unique approach to algorithmic art that is reductive and pure – yet simultaneously vast and overwhelming. Here, the generative process produces infinite visual tables that evoke the ever-rising power of the spreadsheet, and the endless datafication of our world. Both operationally and visually inspired by large table-based datasets that are designed to simplify complex systems, Sheets instead amplifies its own complexity. Using the vernacular of spreadsheet interfaces, early computing displays, and the specification diagrams for printed circuit boards, these works repurpose functional calculations to provoke more than it solves – creating intricate and illegible compositions that remind us of the unknowable logic shaping our world. Like nature, and reality itself, the resulting pile of maths in this series are perhaps best accepted and admired for their beauty and sense of logic, rather than continuously dissected and understood in full. In response to each individual’s perception of beauty and order, collectors of these generative artworks will choose their own unique output from the artist’s core algorithm – six of which will be pre-selected by the artist and translated into special engraved metal plate works.

Piezo
20 artworks
Galerie Met, Ivan Zhyzhkevych
For the last year, I’ve spent countless hours watching my printer draw my work line-by-line, applying ink while constantly resisting the urge to pull the paper and change the spacing between each line drawn. Piezo is inspired by this urge: what if we draw line-by-line like a printer but change the spacing between each drawn line? The movement only happens on the x-axis, where each grid item within a recursive grid gets its own “printhead” to draw. We then put the x-axis coordinates through a sine function, so it moves in both the positive and the negative directions of the grid block. By appointing a separate drawing speed to each grid item, the colors of each grid block are mixed together during the drawing to create gradients and combinations of colors. Rudxane

Bootleg

Bootleg
Unique
GrailersDAO, Singular
Bootleg explores the idea of giving full ownership of an instruction set and giving the collector control of the distribution of the potential output space. Bootleg is self-aware of context, meaning it will behave differently when viewed directly vs. loaded into a child inscription. When viewing the inscription directly it will render as a HTML page outlining the concept and intended scope of the work, recording the artist intent immutably as part of the algorithm. When the inscription is loaded into a child inscription through recursion it will behave as an algorithm to generate a specific output defined by the hash supplied in the child inscription. This gives the new owner of the inscription full control of distribution of the algo; they can choose to leave the inscription as is and keep it a purely conceptual artwork or decide to either curate or randomize hashes and generate an arbitrary amount of outputs from the algorithm. Because of the parent/child relation used in Ordinals for provenance, the collector can generate child inscriptions which become part of the full artist provenance tree. The “Tijd” algorithm used in Bootleg is visually inspired by Partituur, a work by Ulises Carrión, displaying the units of time from the Gregorian calendar in an abstract form along a grid structure. This grid structure is constantly updating the relative values that decide where the time units are placed, whilst connecting different units of the same denomination. This creates both order and chaos in the work and helps the viewer understand and read the current time displayed within the piece.

Hypnagogic
50 artworks
Hypnagogic is a series of curated outputs exploring the theme of Hypnagogia; the state between being awake and asleep. This dream state, where the mind translates real world input into abstract perception, is the inspiration behind each selected output.
