Description
As creators of images, we find ourselves studying the world around us and the ways in which interaction takes form. Living within this world, we also seek awareness and vulnerability to tlie new, old, and present. In this spirit of curiosity, we are interested in collaborating what most would see as "opposing creative worlds;" the conjunction of traditional paint and canvas, and the wonder of computer-based multimedia. What might occur when painting and computer-based creativity collide? What will happen when ways of thinking become a product of stages not predetermined but fully studied? What will happen when stages of logical thought are broken down and reassembled inspirationally? Such interactions between ourselves, a machine and a canvas will be new and undoubtedly will not reveal its outcome easily. However, the spirit of experimentation and collaboration will deepen our understanding of the process and the creativity of art-making.
