Tiny Artists is a series of small computer programs that print generative graphic posters. Each program is born with a short lifespan and can only create a a limited number of works. A program will then delete itself and leave no digital trace of itself or its creations. The printed graphics are the only originals. Continue reading...

The Artist is not Present is a site-specific art piece and a custom piece of software written specifically to run during the 3 weeks of the SP Urban Festival in Sao Paolo. The software is an autonomous algorithm that continuously generates geometric art, evaluates it according to the aesthetic taste of its creator, and adapts. Continue reading...

Tiny Artists 4-6 is the second generation of the Tiny Artists project, where a series of small computer programs generate and print graphic posters, after which they delete themselves and their own source code. The printed graphics are the only originals. While series 1-3 explored computational form, this series investigates color theory. Continue reading...

O'Reilly Atlas is a web application aimed at simplifying the creation and distribution of digital content. It is a Git-backed writing and production tool that exports books as PDF, ePub, Mobi and HTML, from single source Markdown, Asciidoc or HTML files, styled with CSS only. Continue reading...

Custom software analyzes the frequencies in the soundtrack and maps these frequency bands to areas in the video, blending two image layers when a certain frequency is triggered. The result is a lyrical combination of reality and dream. Continue reading...

Tile Puzzle is an interactive sculpture in form of a life-sized version of a tile puzzle game. Custom software divides a video into 9 tiles and randomly projects them onto the tiles of the sculpture. By moving the tiles, a user can manipulate the placement of the videos, affecting the digital world through physical movement. Continue reading...

A common phrase in any metropolis is the term "people watching." By creating sidewalk barricades made up by home-made cardboard cones and yellow stick tape, people are challenged to either adapt to or defy this unofficial element on street. This project was a collaboration with Scott Wayne Indiana, Nik Psaroudakis, and Nien Lam. Continue reading...

"Drab" is an experiment in producing unique, generative album covers for an artist. Whenever the album is bought online, a program outputs a unique version of the album cover and adds it to the MP3 metadata. Continue reading...

This light sculpture reads a written text, half a byte at the time. It is a comment on the principles of language as data, and a reference to binary languages like morse code and computational programming. This project was a collaboration with Don Miller and Peter Holzkorn. Continue reading...
