Few people associate "art" with "computer programming", which sounds boring. Today, we explore art through algorithms, understand visual communication design works, and take programming as the communication language. Programmers start visual design to be stunning.
We all know that the Internet has changed the world, but behind it, In fact, it is because of the existence of programmers They have built all kinds of "convenient tools" in our hands with those difficult to read symbols and numbers.
And programming is one of the most valuable skills in this era It is not only a breakthrough in technology, but also provides us with various forms of convenience. However, few people will associate "art" with "computer programming", which sounds boring.
Natural light Art study abroad Today Take programming as the communication language, and lead students into the art field to talk about "programmers" See how these cross-border artists express their inspiration and creation with high-tech!

Explore art through algorithms
Manolo Gamboa Naon is an innovative designer and code programmer in Argentina, His works were used as album cover by Lost Hearts His art works integrate a series of creative elements from the starting point to the image, which can immerse the audience in the works wholeheartedly.

As an emerging technology in the 21st century, Generative design Its core is human-computer interaction and creative output. The creative process only needs to input design intent and then generate through the system. Popular understanding of creative design is a design method that automatically generates artwork, building models, and product models through algorithms in design software.
Manolo took this as the divergence point and carried out exploration in various art fields on the basis of this technology The work also continues to surprise the audience. In his works, the pictures give people the aesthetic feeling of digital technology pioneers. These abstract paintings redefine the direction of visual art.

No matter the elaborately arranged picture or the simple and spontaneous flowing lines and patterns in the work can become a whole, so Manolo will try everything he can think of Present these ideas through the program.

For Manlolo, Art creation is to create another form of rule , is a series of steps when setting goals. The programmer's automation process has a great impact on his creation, so there will be more inspiration and thinking, which will have the artistic results of repeated experiments.
Manolo programming language works
Since learning programming language as a teenager, Manolo has been exploring more functionality of creative programs , his experience of browsing the creative platform gave him the idea of artistic creation when making random music. In order to maintain this enthusiasm, he spent a long time looking for something he liked.

The form of programming code creation is a process that needs to be repeated constantly Manolo has kept the freedom of creation since the idea was born. From a relatively simple code as a starting point, he strengthens what he likes, takes out what he doesn't like, and then continues to study in this direction.
Some fans were puzzled by this persistent and repeated behavior. Manolo responded, "Copy everything you like and learn to enjoy it". As for us, we are enjoying the results of this "replication".
#404 zero
Common tools: TouchDesigner
Show amazing vision with accurate code
404zero is composed of two Russian artists, Kristina Karpysheva and Alexander Letcius Their cooperation has been more than 6 years, during which their cross-border works cover multimedia, installation, lighting art, music and other fields.
from:404 zero INS
A number of unconventional works of art have made their art circle very famous 3D scene with texture and material fusion The seemingly soft works are superimposed with noise and color, presenting an extremely abstract visual effect.
404 zero visual works
Their creative inspiration comes from Explore the real and virtual world , and then through the code to express it into visual language, reasonable in the works of art to show the audience the thinking of the future world and the integration of technology.
404zero believes that it is difficult for humans to accurately express program language Therefore, there are many unknown aspects of the possibility of code, and in terms of artistic expression, the combination of program languages will make it more expressive.
The addition of programming language has more artistic value for them The emerging technology integrated in the creative perspective of expressing works makes abstract works more accurate in digital geometry.

The same way is more innovative in the use of devices, focusing on installation art exhibitions By editing the code, a series of dynamic effects produced by lights were formed, which brought unprecedented "shock" to the audience.
Reface Visual Works Creation Process
404zero's code is more like a creative exploration and new form of expression Think about each piece of code as a problem, such as exploring death and the universe. In addition, the idea of some expressiveness in programming behavior provides more possibilities for creative tools such as code/programming.
These seemingly complex codes are actually the most interesting. When it comes to ideas, 404 is unwilling to limit their inspiration, and is always looking for ways to achieve inspiration. Their creation not only opens the door of inspiration for everyone, but also leads more creative people to create persistently.
#Mark Dorf
Common tools: After Effects
Exploring Man and Nature through Programming
Mark Dorf is a New York artist, His creative practice integrates photography, video, digital media and sculpture In his works, he used code to explore human perception and interaction in the field of digital simulation, urban and architectural environment, and "natural landscape".
In addition, we have carefully studied and discussed various influences of the information age to understand our "Information Age" . Using the visual image composed of abstraction, mathematics, geometry and symbols, a disordered and strange world is built on the ordinary scenery
Mark Dorf Code Synthesis Photography
Dorf once worked as a resident artist in a laboratory, so the late stage of this laboratory, which cooperated with scientists and biologists, had a great impact on his creation. Most of his works revolve around natural landscape and architecture, most of which are Take materials from 3D space and present them in 2D images Visual image of.
Emergence series visual design works
In the works of Emergence series, we explored how to collect and interpret information for the public in the form of code. Dorf is exploring photography Use data points to create charts and 3D forms to illustrate this shift And then reapply it to the original photo.
Dorf's work combines programming code with Photoshop, 3D rendering and After Effects To integrate different elements to interpret their works. Finally, from the perspective of an observer, we will explore the meaning behind nature in combination with digital media tools.
Lenny's visual series works
It not only integrates code programming It also uses common objects such as Plexiglas, boards, lights, bonsai, disposable mineral water bottles, etc., so that the photos limited by the four borders present a more diversified visual effect in the three-dimensional space, so it is possible to expand the inward space in the image.
Composition process
Although the photos in the works show a natural landscape, there are also and only images floating on the paper representing "nature", and the rest of the sense of space comes from the artificial expansion of the creator.
Spectrum(Detail)
Works that use programming as a visual language are also expanding and practicing into artificial space at a certain level, aiming to throw out a real problem in the works: What is the connection between nature and man-made technology? This question will be worth exploring.
Through the understanding of the above three code artists, we must have more knowledge of the program language of the code series. but In fact, it is not just artists. Progress in the scientific field and interdisciplinary creation are crucial for all of us.
This is especially reflected in our art students abroad. Many of them have used programming to create their works, At the same time, it has become a topic of great research value. The inspiration and thinking shown in the works with programming language are almost all from different perspectives to analyze and solve problems, so Natural Light hopes that these artists shared today can bring more inspiration to the creation of students' works.
