Code-based generative artworks exploring machine relationships, collective systems, and emotional landscapes. For the thesis (machine aesthetics · acceptance · control · agency) and a critique frame with links to recent work, see Practice — critique frame.
Installations
Two viewers, one emergent result. Forms surface from shared presence — what appears belongs to neither and both. No two encounters repeat.
Industrial forms rendered in three dimensions — mechanical structures that process, transform, and ultimately dissolve their own purpose.
A three-dimensional bloom fills the room. Each particle carries a piano note — the space breathes, accumulates, and releases.
A world with an age. Boxes grow from white ground, breathe at full life, and return to white. The camera moves. You do not know what you will find.
Two histories in a room — move your cursor to carry one. When they approach, photographs that belong to both surface. The archive responds to the relationship between bodies.
Infinite architectural documents — each a unique composition of grid, elevation, cube, and notation that no hand drew and no building will follow.
