Generative art is best appreciated through Simon Reilly’s Still Life, and the disturbingly beautiful Mind’s Eye videos. Played through between 6 to 10 minutes, these images are slowly replayed in compression modes or stretched to fill a certain space within one’s minds. Gordon’s work is not dissimilar, and decides to show a western played over a period of over 5 years, this can seen at the Telenor Centre, Oslo.
on philosophy
" Thinking is a form of [conscious] action, a necessary precursor to making something beautiful."
Huat LIMon design
"Design may indeed be complex, but I could not yet imagine it to be complicated...A work can be torturously complex, extravagant, excessively vulgar even…or it can be so simple and plain, almost to the point where it is devoid of any embellishment or decoration, I wouldn’t have an issue with either, but when it is neither that it is considered utterly mundane and ugly."
Huat LIMon architecture
Yet there is still a little problem I have to solve in my head, and that is that I think architecture is taking a bit too long to becoming like what good art is, generative and always assuming an emotive role. We have yet to make it possible for us to connect to our buildings as easily as we do with a work of art or a piece of music, or things we adore, like our children or our books.
