The video shows a sequence of screen-shots. These present different algorithms in the programming language processing to create an identical image: a black square on a neutral gray how it\u2019s used in computer programs. The first algorithm consists of three lines of code and shows the easiest and most common way to do this. Furthermore several more complex, strange or abstruse algorithms, different programming techniques, built-in functions, points, lines, shapes are used to end up in the same image.
\nThis work questions the significance of code in relation to its output, to the perceivable phenomenon. How to grasp their correlation? Which is the relevance of the manufacturing method when it is not shown in the product? What is the importance of the non-visible? Does the area of tension between visible algorithm as a program and non-visible algorithm inside the produced black square change the subjective view?<\/p>\n

The conceptual works focus on the coexistence of humans and technology in a shared environment. Of particular interest is the relationship between theoretical algorithm and physical materiality.<\/p>\n

Mattis Kuhn investigates theoretically and artistically for possibilities of the aesthetic reflection of algorithmic meshworks. Frequent forms are installations, sound, live operating technical objects \/ quasi-subjects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
