Art from Code

Art from Code: Little Big Lines

Learning to code this semester has been one hell of a journey. I’m not that proud to say I’ve cried about coding, but I have. There are witnesses. But it has been a worthy experience, and an important one.  I…

Art from Code: System —Four Parameters

My conference ecosystem, Four Parameters, is inspired by Frieder Nake’s Matrix Multiplication, a series of mathematical solutions represented as computer art. My conference originally began with thinking about evolutionary art as I attempted to replicate the movements of ants in…

Art from Code: Molnár Lines

For my conference project, I am further exploring the works of Vera Molnar. She was a pioneer in computer based artwork, having first started by using a plotter. A lot of her works represent or came out of gradualism –…

Art from Code: Ships

This piece is a simulation is which circles move around the screen and bounce off of each other and the borders of the screen. The circles work as a way to create the sounds which are the focal point of…

Art from Code: Collage Assignment — Izzy Singer

Collage By Izzy Singer First Idea: Irony Before I started coding I made memes. In today’s world, memes are the best way of getting multiple ideas across at once with minimal words or pictures—I often struggle with getting my point…

Art from Code: Perfect Weather

Like many of my classmates I thrust myself into the great unknown when creating my wallpaper. My process didn’t begin with any fancy sketches or a long overdrawn brainstorm, instead I went straight to the internet and began perusing wallpapers…

Art from Code: Happy Accidents

This project has been one of my favorites thus far.This project came entirely from experimenting with code I was familiar with. I originally only had one pattern that would infinitely expand. My original intention was to create a perimeter for…

Art from Code: Subtle Contrast

My main inspiration for this project was Bridget Riley’s work. Specifically, I looked at Shadow Play and Natraja. These works have a lot more artistic depth than I could hope to replicate with my amateur abilities, but I really like…

Art from Code: Adoornments

For this assignment, I spent most of my time just experimenting. I went in with no real idea of what I was going to do, but I just wanted to explore. I really didn’t sketch much because I jumped right into…

Art from Code: Scrolling Wallpaper

My original idea of the wallpaper comes from “time”– When I choose new wallpapers, I always think about how to make the clock of my cellphone clear. Thus, I use many elements about “time” for this assignment. The picture itself…

Art from Code: Scrolling Wallpaper

I was uncertain of how I wanted to create a central background to the canvas.  I was influenced by the Annie Albers grid at first except I wanted to make it a resemblance of a grid more though, and less…

Art from Code: Digital Tools: ;)

This work was heavily inspired by the ideas Vera Molnar’s generative creation of shapes which then are subtly changed and remade next to the original shape. Since my piece wasn’t made to be a static image, instead of showing the…

Art from Code: Modulated Synthesis

My attitude towards this assignment was radically different from my attitude towards the previous assignment. I was inspired by our classroom experiments in combining both for-loops and the mod function. I was also inspired by Josef Albers’ usage of colors…

Art from Code: Secondary

To start this project off, I looked through the works of Josef and Anni Albers because I love the way that both of them use colors that are somewhat muted yet also rich. I used the digital color meter to…

Art from Code: Circling Pink

I began the process of creating my scrolling wallpaper by setting up the initial elements I would utilize for the final product. I was inspired by a 70’s aesthetic of looping circles. As a fan of the French New Wave,…

Art from Code: Nice to Look At

Okay, so loops have kicked my ass. Well, coding is kicking my ass, but here I am, trying. And not trying hard enough, but trying nonetheless. This project seemed like a fun idea, but when introduced to all the new…

Art from Code: Self-Portrait

My portrait basically comes from the idea “abstract”. It was mentioned in our class, and I thought it is a good way to show how I consider myself throughout my work. To me, mosaic is a method to generalise the…

Art from Code: Collage

The title of my collage is “Japonism”. The idea of this assignment came from the time when I was organising photos taken in Japan. Since the country itself has vivid, various aspects to discover and enjoy, I decided to use…

Art from Code: Rainbow Madness

This one is all color, and a whole lot of experimentation. While with my last prompt, I had an idea from the beginning, the only thing I knew about this one is that I’d like to have a lot of…

Art from Code: BeeConstruction

When we got the assignment to create a collage, it took me a long time to decide what theme I wanted to work with. But after several hours of watching a playthrough of the game Cuphead, in which a queen…
