Random generative art piece using a film

This art piece by Vladimir Kanic, a transmedia artist filmmaker, is part of a series of artwork that incorporates chaos theory and randomness to create structured art. Vladimir created a process that alters the film to create itself from spontaneous occurrences in everyday material world. He devised a concept called ‘Magic box ‘ where twelve boxes are given to different art directors and they put in a random number of objects. A group of random people would then procede to put them in a stash and the artist would create a film by observing and measuring randomness from the objects from any one of the boxes. I found this piece particularly interesting as a unique piece of art is created through measuring randomness through a random model system of chaos.
