Mark Wilson, drawing with computers.
Mark was originally an painter, mainly dealing with geometric shapes, and having a technological feeling to it- this was during the seventies.
In 1980, he bought himself a microcomputer- learning the programing aspect and incorporating his own madeup software using algorithms, and began producing artworks. Originally inspired by pictures of circuit boards, computer components, and other electronic insides. The peices still being produced look as if they could exist within a circuit board, or in your computer.
I thought this peice was interesting when found on rhizome- but as i began to read the interview that took place with Mark Wilson- it began to become more and more complex- I’d say out of my understanding, as i dont understand math immensley, or creating software. If you are more interested- there is a breakdown of how one of these peices had been produced, layer by layer- here.
- There is also many other peices shown on the interview page with rhizome, here.
or here, his personal webpage.
