GMUNK creates atmospheric, spatial, generative art that takes inspiration from science fiction, psychedelics, and architecture. His work is motivated by his desire to learn and be uncomfortable.
His work usually consist of moving, digitally generated images projected or displayed on screens, however he also utilizes programmable lighting arrays, projection mapped sculptures, and robotic choreography.
His installation works are very immersive, and transports the viewer into a mesmerizing, ominous environment created by sculptures, robotic arms, lights, and projected patterns.
A lot of his subtler, digital pieces utilize simple, recursive algorithms to create mesmerizing 3-dimensional patterns. Some aren’t entirely generated by code, however utilize particle simulations. Similarly, some rely on procedural generation techniques to create spectacularly complex environments from simple algorithms.
He is also the creator of extremely iconic wallpapers, posters, and designs, such as the Windows 10 desktop. He does a lot of promotional work for large brands.
