LO: Randomness

Tyler Hobbs is an artist who acknowledges that randomness and spontaneity play a role in great works. I admire that this artist believes studying/experimenting/controlling randomness is useful for artistic purposes. In this “Continuity No. 8” art piece, I was able to see his attempt to explain his thoughts on one aspect of randomness here. His “Continuity series begins by generating semi-random quadrilaterals.” The overlapping intersections of the quadrilaterals become the negative space(black-colored area). The proximity to a randomly chosen focal point draws the brightness, transparency, sharpness, and other aspects of the positive space. The combined contents of the first layer takes a role in the generation of the next layer and created a harmonious art piece at the end.
