Geoffrey Bradway’s mesmerizing yet hallucinatory patterns are created with repeated overlays of dynamic lines using machine learning and artificial intelligence. Bradway generates powerful computational art that is beyond one’s imagination, specifically with a program called Python and a plotter called Axidraw V3 A3. When Bradway produces a collection of lines that structures using [A, B, C, D, …], the robot can merely translate this list of points into mechanical operations. For instance, a line [A, B, C] is rendered as “PENUP, GOTO(A), PENDOWN, GOTO(B), GOTO(C), PENUP.” I found his particular style of generating art really fascinating as he uses AI and robots to create beautiful, magnetic piece of art. I admire how he exploits the aspects of rapidness and accuracy in computers, and brilliant intelligence human beings have. Bradway’s artistic sensibility arises as he uses his intuition to direct his artworks the way he wants to shape it with multiple lines of codes.
