More Hires Superformula
I decided to save some high resolution picture done with the superformula , i have arround 50 right now , and i gonna continu to make more in the next few weeks , most of my old screenshoot are low res , and i think it´s important to keep a good quality version of my work . So i have been spending few days exploring again the superformula and saving the result in 40000 * 40000 pixel / 72dpi as well i´m gonna convert them in 300dpi . I have to say that i still have much fun playing arround with the superformula. On most of the patch are based on a Lsystem to make the composition.
I would love to print arround 10 of them to be able to make a small exhibition , but at the moment i don´t have the money to print them , and it´s quite expensive if you want a large format.

Generatorx workshop / Foldable Fractal
I participate in february to the generatorx workshop organise per Mariuz Watz.
It was workshop and exhibition about digital fabrication and generative systems.
So for arround 10 days the participant of the workshop were able to play arround with a laser cutter.
There were very interesting people in this workshop , and i have really enjoy doing this small project.
For this workshop i have been working with vvvv as well , i would have love to play arround with processing , but it would have take to much time , so i decided to keep concentrate on experimenting with the laser cutter.So i generated a fractal who was actually based on my lsystem patch , then export the vertex data into a svg file ( scalable vector graphic)
Bye the way i have been working pretty much with svg , tring to implement as much function as i can , i will try to upload some module in the future…
Once my svg file was created , i just had to load into the machinne via corel draw , wait twice 20 minut , and then it was cut.
One of my cardboard has move a bit so the laser didn´t cut it totaly , i had manually to finish cutting the stuff , it was really long … then all the piece were exibit at the DAM (Digital Art Museum) in Berlin.
Here is the flickr collection of photos from the workshop.
Big thanks to Mariuz

VA / Orbit

VA : it´s the name we (me and Nu ) have choose to call our colaboration , it´s our band / collective name.
We ve been collaborating since more than one year , experimenting with midi comunication , improvisation , having fun …
I think today we ´ve got something more serious going on , it´s still the begining but i´m very exited about continuing working on this project.

“Orbit” is our new project, it´s a journey into an interactive realtime audiovisual solar system ,
In this computer generated 3d world , sound and visual are synchronise for a full audiovisual experience. The graphics and the movement of this abstract generative system is driven by a deep minimal dancefloor beat with a strong emphasis on realtime interaction. Orbit is a high resolution audiovisual experience. A panoramic trip into a futuristic organic 3d space …

Work in Progress
to be continued…
Workshop and gig in Stockholm
In October , I was invited to the royal academie of fine art of Stockholm to give a vvvv workshop and participate to the Pixelvark festival . I was very impress per the motivation of the student , it was a newbie level workshop , the student where very exited about the software , it was a great experience.
I went to Sweden with my friend and musical collaborator Raulf fabian Laumer aka Nu , to perform an audiovisual act of 45mn. It was one of the first great experience of audiovisual experimentation , somehow today i´m getting bored of vjing and i want to go deeper into reel colaboration with the musician , more than random improvistion on famous dj. So i´m gona concentrate in the future into this audiovisual work…
