Chan that investigates our worlds favorite pastime: the quantification of self.

PIONEER GRAILS - MUT-3-2 TGA

In the 1940s, painter Lee Mullican began to receive acclaim for his layered abstractions. Upon returning from service in World War II, where he served as a cartographer and graphic artist, Mullican developed a technique of using a printer"s knife to create three-dimensional ridges of oil paint atop a flat painted ground; he referred to these marks as striations. Through the implementation of this striation technique, Mullican created captivating works that exude depth and energy. 

Inspired by ancient and ritualistic art, Mullican"s practice centered on pursuing art as a meditative and spiritual practice. Themes of creation and cosmological exploration are present in Mullican"s paintings, drawings, and sculptures throughout his over fifty-year career. Mullican"s work often grapples between diametric themes of abstraction and representation, the planned and the automatic, and contemplation and humor. 

MUT-3-2.TGA, exemplifies Mullican"s adaption of the themes and styles of his physical work to the digital art he began to create in 1986. Vibrant color orbits a central ellipse while smaller circles and lines resemble constellations in motion on a dark striated substrate. The heliocentric nature of the composition rivals its perceived personage, similar to Mullican"s GUARDIAN series of the 1970s and 80s, which depicted mystical linear figures on black backgrounds.

"I found that beyond what one thought, the computer as being hard-lined, analytical, and predictable, it was indeed a medium fueled with the automatic, enabled by chance, and accident, discovery of new ways of making imagery." Lee Mullican

PIONEER GRAILS - YELLOW TREE

I studied architecture in Stuttgart. Max Bense lectured in what was then known as the Studium Generale. I don"t believe something like that exists anymore. People from all kinds of faculties gathered there. It was really exciting. There were no exams like in statics, building law, design, and so on. It was about questions concerning the art form of concrete poetry, which was fashionable at the time, about the types of language that might be used there, and about the more general question of when something is art. When does something stop being art?

Bense"s answer, very briefly: Avoid the term art altogether. The term art is far too loaded, Bense said. Therefore, introduce the term "aesthetic event."

The design of YELLOW TREE comes down to just three decisions: the design of a piece of code that makes use of randomly generated, but somehow predefined, polygonal lines; a color for the object generated; and a color for the background. In my opinion, it is the strictness and simplicity of this setup that are of interest for its qualification as an aesthetic event.

 Hans Dehlinger

YELLOW TREE (2001) by Hans Dehlinger is a print of a coded vector file that was originally written for and executed on a pen plotter. A great number of polygonal lines consisting of straight line segments originate in a very small square area at the bottom of the page, a symbol for the "root area" of the tree.

The blue background color is a reference to a wide blue sky in summer. The yellow reminds us of the time of harvest from the soil of the earth. The first instance of each line is always generated vertically and upwardsthe "stem of the tree". The lines further unfold and spread upward into the entire drawing area and are clipped at its borders.

ZENTRUM is a dynamic, endlessly running abstract animation made of structural elements and random codes. The random generator ensures that each endless loop is unique. For ZENTRUM, Franke had to make do with the limited computing capacity that a home computer offered at the time. Despite this limitation, it was important to him to develop moving sequences even in his first programs for the Apple II. He considered the movement to be a pioneering digital innovation. The combination of dynamic image sequences and music, as well as the interactivity, were already groundbreaking in his MONDRIAN program code, developed in 1979 for the Texas Instruments home computer.

PIONEER GRAILS - WORDLESS MSG

In this surreal tableau by Anne Spalter, two intense cats bring a wordless message about the urgent crisis of climate change. 

The scene unfolds in a barren desert landscape cloaked in a surprising layer of snowa stark reminder of the drastic consequences of our changing climate. The juxtaposition of the arid desert and the unseasonable snowfall is a manifestation of the extreme weather events we increasingly encounter, highlighting the disconcerting reality of our planet"s transformation.

The cats" piercing gazes and intense expressions communicate a sense of urgency and concern, transcending the boundaries of language and culture. They stand as guardians of our fragile ecosystem, and their presence is a reminder of the interconnectedness of all life forms on Earth. These enigmatic felines are more than mere observers; they are emissaries from the cosmos, arriving via a UFOan emblem of the unknown, the unexpected, and the potentially catastrophic.

A single yield sign punctuates the artwork with a direct and unequivocal warning. It is a sign of our responsibility to yield to the pressing demands of nature, to acknowledge the impending consequences of our actions, and to alter our course before it"s too late.

In WORDLESS MESSAGE, the convergence of art and technology becomes a powerful tool for storytelling. The initial AI-generated composition laid the foundation, but additional rounds of AI processing as well as significant handwork in Photoshop made this artwork complete. It serves as a testament to the possibilities that emerge when we harness the capabilities of technology to explore and express complex issues like climate change.
