Stills from ongoing video (made with generative codes and found footage)

I'm sorry for your feed (full of horror). Yes, my artistic practice gives me a lot of pleasure, as Jean Paul Sartre would say, it gives meaning to my existence.

Ha yes it can make you think of the sound of a droid.

Almost black

I think there's no middle ground between being at one with your art and having postures that don't create pain.

A painted wood panel with a white background. There is a green and brown geometric pattern painted in acrylic paint that resembles a technical drawing or architectural rendering.

Completed this painting recently. I've transitioned to a mode of art making where I create computer algorithms that generate images, which I then paint by hand. I find mapping rigid computer-based processes to the messy real world to be extremely satisfying.

I can feel your satisfaction when I look at it (even if I know this kind of task requires a heavy concentration and can provoke pain in the back). You've done a fantastic piece here.

Line clusters

In all cases, the result is striking 👏🏻

I'm curious to know in what order you proceeded, did you paint after tracing the lines/marks or the other way round (tracing first with a pencil, painting then tracing the outlines on top)?

Hatching and movement

Surface and rhythm

Another scanned surface

Two hand-made programs were used to create this picture, the first generating the landscape, the second the text above. The whole has been edited with the addition of possible definitions to the acronym SOL (ground in French)

A work on the concept of acronyms that I've just done for a fanzine.

latent topography

Ce serait en effet idéal mais je veux utiliser des sons live, c'est un prototype que j'aimerai faire fonctionner plus tard dans MaxMsp ou des logiciels de mapping.

Je crois que c'est la caisse claire qui donne le plus de mouvement mais il y a un peu de latence le temps que JS compile toute les données dans une texture pour les envoyer au shader. Je pense qu'en réduisant le nombre de samples, j'aurai une meilleure synchro.

Nice one 👌🏻
