Ghost Pole Propagator (2007)

The name of artist: Golan Levin

Ghost Pole Propagator captures and replays the 'skeletons' of passersby in its environment, creating a layered and dynamic tapestry that reflects the history and activity of a locale. Presenting a universal communication of presence, attitude and gesture, the stick-figures this artwork generates are compact and expressive means of representing the human form. The format of the work is variable; in other presentations, the project serves as a kind of 'interpretive monitoring station' for nearby pedestrian traffic.

host Pole Propagator (2007: Golan Levin) is an interactive installation originally developed for projection in the 13th century Belsay Hall Castle, in Newcastle, England as part of the Picture House exhibition.

CityCollage (2005)

The name of artist: Martin Wattenberg

CityCollage creates a leisurely, painterly image of a single second. Your image is used as a palette that echoes the sampling of the artist’s eye. CityCollage takes your photo and uses it to build a streetscape. You become the raw material for an urban construction. As in a city, your own presence is tangential, one ingredient among many. You may not even see yourself, until a sudden moment of recognition, like spotting a familiar face in a crowd.

Two cameras are trained on two views, one on the street, one in a private space at the installation. Each time movement is detected in the private sphere, a new streetscape is created.

Citycollage was part of the show ‘Urbanisms‘ at the Pace Digital Gallery

Artificial ART: Lines (2001)
Chance
ARTficial ART:lines" is a program using random numbers and a "wiggly" line algorithm to generate a practically unlimited stream of organic looking artwork. It is a collection of programs. These program use random numbers and generative art principles to make "art" automatically. There is is often surprising contrast between the simplicity of the algorithms and the complexity of the resulting patterns.

Nine (2001)
collage,flash
Nine is a dynamic poem presenting images from the lives of the artist,constantly shifting them in-and-out of focus, in tension with, and making something of a mockery of, the clean, linear story told by the text which winds through them.
