I developed a software which incessantly is creating abstract "picture ideas"(composition).
I painted these compositions after the presentation of the computer with paintbrush and acrylic paint.
"Slave labour" or - computer-human-painting at the threshold to the new millennium - human thinks - machine works -->> evolution --> machine is thinking --> human depends on the machine (enslaved) 'Slave labour 'V1
In the beginning of this progress the scientist, who did this, understand a lot about the machines they used. Today every body is using PC's and the most of them have no idea about how computers are working. But they except to become depended to the computer by giving it the most important data.
Anyway - i developed this software and it was running 18 nights. While i war sleeping the software was producing an enormous amount of paintings (200-500 during each night). Every morning I was checking all the paintings critically.
Form my viewpoint I selected the most interesting painting and deleted all the other paintings (computer-files). After all - 18 are left.
I needed 18 days to paint the first painting, that's why i stopped the software after that time.
How is this software working?
I bought CD-ROM with an archives of 30.000 photos - sorted by topic like: spot, leisure, family, nature, war, history, technology ... . The software is selecting 2 main subjects by "chance". 2 photos are used and mixed with self programmed painting effects.
Later i painted the paintings followed by this steps:
- cutting wood (40x30cm) + prime it
- raze the prime
- screening the PC-painting 200x150 pixel
- reduce the colours from 16.000.000 to around 60 (depends on the painting)
- transfer the raster to the painting 2mm for each pixel - all-together 30.000 squares for each painting
- mixing the acrylic-paint (exactly like on the monitor)
- painting with a small brush square by square (like the pixel)
