Generative Artist: Katharina Brunner

A German data analyst and software developer, who created the R package generative art that "introduces human-independent randomness to creative processes."  https://rpubs.com/izzy-shehan/750493 The artist's personal website:  https://katharinabrunner.de/ She grew up in Germany, in a small farm-based village of 7,000 people, but she does not believe that she could live in a small city anymore. At the time of her interview in 2018,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfUr31XEbac she was living in Vienna, with plans to move to Copenhagen or maybe to Sweden, where she graduated from the School of Design in UMEA.  Example of Katharina Brunner's Generative Art In this website (11-28-2018), we can find the artist's step by step coding process to create her artwork: https://katharinabrunner.de/2018/11/generative-art-many-thousands-points-can-form-beautiful-images/ "Brunner’s process for creating generative art is to first,  set up  the specific directory structure tha

Reading: Inter-disciplinary Digital Interaction

The article introduces concepts and its definitions to apply when designing digital interface game (digital experience) or website.  Nodes Branch Types of controls Denotation Connotation Divergent Convergent Entry Point Faux Choice (False Choice) Gamification Geon Theory or Recognition by components theory (Irving Biederman) Geons (geometric icons) Icons Pictograms Isotypes (used in Europe in the 1940s-1960s Column Grid Modular Grid Hierarchical Grid Hick's Law (the more choices a person has, the more time it will take to process the decision) Digital Interface Menu Signals: audible or visual indication that an interaction is taking place to activate or change a particular object. Cues: response that the signal has been activated.

Inter-disciplinary Interaction Design

  Interdisciplinary Interaction Design "Interaction design has many dimensions to it.  It  addresses how people deal with words read images explore physical space think about time and motion how actions and responses affect human behavior Various disciplines  make up interaction design , such as  industrial design cognitive psychology user interface design and many others.  It is my hope that this book is a starting point for  creating a visual language  to enhance the understanding of interdisciplinary theories within interaction design. The book uses concise descriptions, visual metaphors and comparative diagrams to explain each term's meaning. Many ideas in this book are based on timeless principles that will function in varying contexts"--Provided by author James Panafino, 2012

Lauren McCarthy, generative artist

https://lauren-mccarthy.com/   Lauren McCarthy is a Chinese-American artist who has created p5.js,"an open source programing language for learning creative expression through code online. Also, she promotes software literacy within the visual arts and visual literacy within technology-related field and to make these fields accessible to different communities." She is involved in Performance Art, Installation Art, Artificial Intelligence, Programed computer-interaction. Through her art she develops social commentaries towards finding available tools to  improve human social interactions. "My work is a critique of the simultaneous technological and social systems we are building around ourselves. What are the rules, what happens when we introduce glitches? I create performances inviting viewers to engage. To remote control my dates. To be followed. To welcome me in as their human smart home. To attend a party hosted by artificial intelligence. In these interactions, there

Critique Regarding Assignment #3

Apply animation on the static round shapes Get rid of stroke around the image Apply a variable on the rotation https://editor.p5js.org/carmeli2024/sketches/WV9OSsWlP

Sketches

At the move of the cursor/mouse the photograph/image enlarges/zoom out and leaves a mirror-like image of the square/rectangular shape of the zoom out movement track.  Simultaneously, a yellow small round shape becomes the center of a larger circle that is formed by the movement of yellow square shapes. This becomes a continuous loop circle around the center, that it is modified as the cursor/mouse is moved to other location. Problems : How to make the loop to become intermittent or pause for a period of time to make the circle loop in another location?                    How to make the zoom in and zoom out of the image/photograph a separate animation than the previous mentioned animation of shapes: circle movement?                    What other static or animated features can be included in the final artwork? https://editor.p5js.org/carmeli2024/sketches/fee1nh-D_ let angle=5; let img; let diameter; function preload(){   img=loadImage("images/blog.png"); } function setup() {

Generative Artists

Generative Art: "is a process of algorithmically generating new ideas, forms, shapes, colors and patterns. First, you create rules that provide boundaries for the creation process. Then, a computer follows those rules to produce new works on your behalf." Algorithm Art or Code Art or Procedural Art: "It is a step-by-step method of solving a problem. And it is one of the fundamental building blocks of computer science." https://aiartists.org/generative-art-design   Michael Hansmeyer Manolo Gamboa Naon Anders Hoff Katharina Brunner       https://katharinabrunner.de            / https://x.com/MSchories/status/1084766780701184000?s=2 Jon McCormack Brian Eno Roelof Pieters and Samim Winiger, co-founders of  https://creative.ai/ Fernando Ramallo Meatt Pearson Mark J.
