For my conference project, I wanted to create an interactive comic book based on the manga I brought with me to college. At first, I wasn’t sure what I wanted my comic book to be about. I had the opportunity…

To be rather frank, I went into this project not knowing what I want to do. I knew I’d like to experiment with something new (be it code syntax, shapes, colors or effects), but coming up with a concept that…

A look inside my evolving project As I pursue computer science, I am interested to see what directions I can go in with coding. My first idea for my conference project was to build a bouncing jelly bean simulator. You…

For our last assignment of the semester, we were inspired by Grace Hertlein, a computer artist who uses nature as a source of creativity. To recreate similar art, we used the Perlin noise function. This is similar to using the…

Culminating in hours and hours of work and a final project I can be proud of, this is my final project. This project began as a side scroller, that needed opposing motion. To complete that particular check-in for our Art…

My project came to be from an interest in an idea, word, motion, and or feeling.  I am still unsure how to categorise it, and believe that it can be a part of all, some, none, or something not listed…

Why I started it? I made artist presentation about Charlene Modena. And I like her conceptual jewelry. I think wearing meaningful conceptual jewelry is very cool. And my ideal career is jewelry designer… Why this topic? My theme for this project…

As I was collecting evidence, I was naturally drawn to leaves because of the fall season. I found that they were easy to manipulate. You can do a lot with leaves. You can bring them close together to create a…

At first glance, Molnár’s series Lettres de ma mère was reminiscent of what Agnes Martin had created: systematically repetitive penciled grids. However, deviation soon arose, for the technique of gradualism (minute change in one parameter per iteration) enabled progression towards…

This semester was the first time I really spent time learning to make art on a computer. Whenever I thought of art, I thought about the common mediums such as sculpture or painting and I never thought that something emotive…

One of our first larger assignments in Conceptual Art was to collect evidence of a concept or idea and apply three different forms to the same evidence. My process of finding a form was a difficult one, stemming from my…

I am not very good at math. Some would say that I am, in fact, a menace when it comes to anything more than simple addition. However, I am constantly fascinated by the way math and art combine in code,…

After reading about Vera Molnar’s art making process of starting with a base code and then altering one aspect of the code (a variation of one parameter), I have come to view repetition in a new way. I’m realizing that…

The repetition of each loop I created are not dull and monotonous purely because they are repetitive in their nature. Instead, they are creative and lend themselves to meaning with each repetition. They grow and build off each other to…

The word repetition dates back to Latin roots and by defintion, it means the action of repeating something that has already been done. Molnar’s practiced style of repeating is similar to a pyshcological idea Freud presented in 1914. Repetition Compulsion…
