“GENerativeART: Algorithms as Artistic Tool” a presentation by Dr. James R. Parker.
Generative art is the art of the algorithm where artists must carefully design the nature of their work, and then implement it as a computer program. He posits that computational tools can be used to augment and express human imagination. And, of course, it is fun. As Dr. Parker states “If you are not having fun then you are doing it wrong”.
Join the Artists from the Asian Roots Trio Exhibition at the ASA Gallery for a LIVE Kimono drawing session, and the closing of the exhibition.
The ASA Gallery will also be open during the event.
Tickets for this event are REQUIRED to ensure adequate space.
Asian Roots Trio, A.R.T. for short, is a showcase of our Asian narrative. Each of us has our own distinct story about our Asian heritage since we all have unique backgrounds and experiences. Although we did not search each other out, we all came to an intersection through our common interest in traditional Asian culture. Our choice of mediums, including oil painting, drawing, and watercolour painting, form a diverse yet cohesive vision of traditional Asian aesthetics as we tell the story of our Asian Roots.
This work is a collaboration between Danny, Hesam and Twinkle as a result of their conversations surrounding their identities, backgrounds and how individual perspectives shape their view on this particular element of life. Water and the query of its nature has always been a fundamental aspect from which philosophy has sprung. By examining the various states that one can find water in, we are able to relate and think inwardly to the tempests and stagnation found in our day-to-day moments leading to how our cultures are shaped.
Our aim was to juxtaposition the universality of water against the backdrop of our own individual ethnic backgrounds and identities.
