When exploring generative art and different artists, I discovered Georg Nees and had fun looking through his work. Nees has a background in math and physics and started working in the field of computer graphics in 1964. He was one of the first artists to use algorithms on a computer to create his artwork. He first publicly displayed his work in 1965. The artwork was first coded on punched paper tape before being created by a drawing machine (Zuse Graphomat Z64). I think it is pretty cool to hear about an older system of coding like punching paper and translating to a drawing machine, and I admire the want to make art with a different system like computers. I enjoy looking at Nees’s artwork as it holds both a simplicity and complexity. The black line on a white background seems simple, but the patterns and images become so complicated. There is a sense of order and chaos. Pretty amazing that they are all created with code!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
