suckerPUNCH: Describe your project.

Will PYATT: The project explores a repeated geometries ability to express gradient in texture between a fluid soft-surface, and a polygonized hard-surface; wherein recognizable figural forms exist in contrast with a fluid and continuous surface. Simultaneously a secondary system operates according to the same logic; however rather than forming geometry, volume, & space these components seek to veil the existing geometries in a permeable sharp-screen that seeks to mask the nature of the interior spaces.

Students explored the image making ability of complex systems through a series of exercises targeted at analyzing and leveraging behaviors expressed through color and mechanical precedents. Students analyzed physical relationships in early industrial automatons and machines to produce logics for the organization of material in a multi-agent systems. Students then explored color relationships in Dutch still life painting, which they then integrated into their mechanical systems as new behaviors.
