The Rise of the Coder Artist

Above: Ravenkwok

I have recently seen some articles about whether AI can create art.  It is one of those dumb ideas that is easy clickbait.  The art created often tries to imitate figurative renaissance style painting, and it looks dumb.  Computers are not artists yet!

The more interesting topic is how many coders are now making motion art, and beautiful art, with just code.

I am not a coder.  But as a curator for gifs for Cross Connect I am always on the lookout for great gif artists and over and over again I find really interesting work being done by coders, with code.  Often without any art background or training they simply have a desire to create something beautiful that moves, and their paintbrush is code, as opposed to standard animation tools like After Effects or Cinema 4D, let alone actual paintbrushes.

Of course the work is for the most part abstract.  For a time I had harbored this idea that it was a  trend that would run its course:  After all how many times will a spinning torus or vortex interest you?

But the opposite seems to be true.  The variation and excellence in this genre seems to be increasing in richness as artists learn from each other and develop new techniques.  Some of the most startling and innovative motion imagery I have seen in the last year comes from this area,

Here are a few examples of the surprising variety that is out there.  Note how different not only in the imagery but the overall feeling each of these examples give you.

Disney's multiplane camera. Developed in 1937 by William Garity, one of the many inventions and innovations Disney had developed in order to produce more realistic and affecting animations. Instead of shooting single cels of animation on a single movable background, the multiplane camera could shoot several independently moving backgrounds, creating a sense of depth and perspective.

#Repost @jessicavwalsh ・・・ Pleasing everyone is impossible. I used to constantly try to make everyone else around me happy and like me, but it caused an awful loop of unhappiness for all. As sometimes when you give to people they just keep taking and taking and never give back and are never satisfied , like a vampire. I’ve lost a lot of those toxic friendships in the last years once I recognized them but gained much better ones along the way. I’ve found the best way to live is to just be unapologetically myself, true friends and family stand by, and I don’t care what anyone else thinks about me anymore.
