I am most inspired by Frieder Nake’s generative artwork. I admire the sharpness of his work the most because it makes for a very neat finished product that one could admire for hours. Although he mostly uses straight lines and geometric shapes, he also uses layering often to create more dimension in his artwork. Additionally, I enjoy his use of varying colors and stroke weights because when different colors and stroke weights are layered together it introduces a completely new color to the artwork depending on the values of each. Nake uses an algorithmic approach to his computer art, with perhaps some randomness weaved in as well. He identifies as a mathematician, which most likely translates to his work in the form of arithmetic algorithms which he could have imbedded into if-statements, or written by themselves. I suppose Nake used if-statements to determine where to draw the next shape, or where to switch the colors, which might have depended on the position of the shape\/color on the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
