Amorphoscapes by Stanza are interactive, generative, audio
visual, digital paintings and drawings created specifically for
the internet. This is interactive art on the internet, incorporating
generative sounds and 3D imaging. Amorphoscapes, provide a
seductive, multi-sensory non-linear and interactive experience
for the audience to immerse into. Cellular forms replicate,
intricate webs evolve, moods and colours change and fuse,
sounds and rhythms pulse and change. Amorphoscapes allow
the "user" to experience each artwork differently, depending on
how they choose to navigate.
As well as providing this non-linearity, some of the pieces
change over time, ie they generate. The "user" controls these
evolving pieces through movement. The character of the
resulting piece is unique to the user. This change in the
relationship between the ’user’ and the artist changes the
perception of the artwork. The user can choose what they
experience. At any time the user can make subtle or total
change to their Amorphoscape whenever they want to explore
further. |
Amorphoscapes as digital paintings inhabit the worlds of art, music and design. As artworks, they are an extension to the modernist grid; except now the grid is multiplying and shifting. Moving into another dimension of multi user input both from the audio and the visual. I like the idea that these works embrace the art of drawing and painting; in fact they act as autonomous drawing and painting machines. Each online installation is an experimental attempt to make an interface which is interesting to look at and expressive both audibly and visually. So the new interactive works are variable, and with my "Amorphoscapes" series, they also allow you to do
it online, globally, in real time as internet specific artworks. i.e. this is net art. 2002 |
