Tim's fractal

Phoenix Julia is my fractal with density of 8 inside and transfer fucntion is log.

outside density is 9 with transfer function of cube

My Fractal

This fractal is stemmed from Newton with added color density at 18 and transfer fucntion of linear.

Fractals

Attempts for fractals:
This one one stemmed from "orbit traps."  I added colors and shape to it.



Artist week 4

Ian Clemmer

Ian Clemmer was born in Seattle but spent the last decade of his life in Germany. He graduated with a BA degree in digital art and media production from Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt, Germany, in 2010, and has worked for Pixomondo, a motion graphics company, and the Sony Corporation. He currently lives in Venice, CA. He is both a professional photographer and a motion graphics artist, and a programmer and developer of 3D software that creates complex motion graphic effects. He calls his results visual music or "viusic"--a concept inspired by computer graphics pioneer John Whitney. "If harmony is audible, why not visible?" Clemmer asks. His work aspires to Digital Harmony.




Videos of his work can be found as listed:







Ian Clemmer on his L'Oreal Pitch:

“I had the chance of designing a pitch for L'Oreal when I was working for the Spatial Harmonics Group. The director's wish was for a hybrid between fluid, fabric and gas, a spectacular piece of fluid animation. I created this gasesous fluid fabric with 3d Studio Max, FumeFX and Krakatoa, compositing in AfterEffects. This is what I came up with and apparently I nailed it on the spot :)”

About Scott Draves
Scott Draves a.k.a. Spot is a visual and software artist living in New York City. Draves is best known as the creator of the Electric Sheep, a continually evolving abstract animation with over 450,000 participants.
He created the original Flame algorithm in 1991, the Bomb visual-musical instrument in 1995, and the Electric Sheep in 1999. Draves' software artworks are released as open source and have been used for two decades by many other artists and designers in their own work. Most recently, Draves created Generation 243, a commissioned piece for the Gates Center for Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. Other works in clude Clade 1, a rare true high-definition video artwork that runs a 26-minute loop. Dreams in High Fidelity, a moving painting that runs infinitely, is installed in the lobby of Google's headquarters, and has been acquired by corporate and residential collections nationally.
Draves' award-winning work is permanently hosted on MoMA.org, and has appeared in Wired and Discover magazines, as an official skin for Google Chrome, as the graphic identity for Siggraph 2008, the Prix Ars Electronica 1993, the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference, and on the main dance-floor at the Sonar festival in Barcelona.
When not working as a full-time artist, Draves has worked for a series of technology start-ups. First was the fabless microprocessor design company Transmeta, made famous by Linus Torvalds. Later came FastForward Networks, which was acquired by Inktomi, then the PDI/Dreamworks R&D Department, which earned him a feature film credit for Shrek 2. Draves is now an engineer in the mapping division at Google Inc.
Spot started VJing at underground parties in the early 90s and still performs live. In 2004 he published SPOTWORKS a DVD of visual music which has sold more than 4000 copies.
In 1990 he received a BS in Mathematics from Brown University and in 1997 a PhD from the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University for a thesis on metaprogramming for media processing.

Benedikt Amrhein
Born into a family of artists in 1975, in the beautiful town of Lübeck, near the waters of the Baltic Sea, Benedikt Amrhein is now residing in Bonn, Germany's former capital. As someone who is fond of artistic excesses of all kinds (writing short stories, composing etc.), he discovered graphic art (somewhat late) during the past few years. Since then Digital Art (sometimes combined with photography) has become his passion. While not dreaming and thinking in colours, he works as a warehouseman in a medium-sized enterprise.
Benedikt regularly uses Apophysis, Bryce and Photoshop.
From my point of view, art knows no limitations; there aren’t any labels, but if they are, they should be used carefully; any form of art is part of the other art, thus any form of art can’t exist without the other. Music is impossible to be heard without creating images in one’s mind, and literature and imagery is also, in another way, an important part of music, when it comes to write music down – in form of letters (A, B, C, D and so on) and certain glyphs, which we call notes.
In this sense, art is limitless and without borders, as said above. Thus, the images I create are nothing less than sculpted and colourful words, sentences and speeches. If you want, they are the stories I never wrote.
So: art knows no limits, in my eyes. As someone, who is open for everything (in musical sense, I listen to everything from Classical Music, Film Music, Pop to Jazz, Electronical Music, including Techno and Trance, and all kinds of Rock Music, including Progressive Rock, Heavy and Progressive Metal) I am used to shift between the medias, the techniques, the different forms of art.
Especially Digital Art shows no limitations, is a never dwindling source for an aspiring artist – the greatest adventure playground you could ever imagine! An adventure playground, where I can let off steam to my heart’s content.
Many words –
Benedikt  has many galleries of Apophysis in his portfolio. Now knowing what the name of these pictures are is nice because I have many of the same style pictues throughout my house.

Trail Apophysis

center o.75 radisus2.5
My trail will keep working on it
This is a little harder with and Mac

Help

I need help with my Apophysis I have a Mac and cannot download the app I did find some stuff on fractual but it has me doing it the math way. Is there another way for Apple user to do this....

My Apophysis

Apophysis 120622-8




I went to the gradient chart to preset or change the coloring then I adjusted it to blur at 10.  From that point I went to mutation chart and changed the speed to 0.07 and changed the trend to “perspective”, changing the speed again to 0.22.  Experimenting.

Apophysis



My Apophysis is 120622-37. I adjusted it to saturation at 30 with mutation speed at 0.25.
The trend I chose is diamond.

Week 3 Artist


Thomas Vilot

                                            Common Threads
                                 

Thomas Vilot graduated from the University of the Arts (Philadelphia) in 1989. "I have always been fascinated by the fusion of art and technology," he writes. His work is conceived, created, drawn, designed, layered, even textured on the computer screen, and is outputted by Vilot onto large-size canvas or paper. Despite his digital expertise, Vilot may be more a conventional artist than we think. His canvas prints are often re-worked by traditional brush and oil techniques.
I think his use of art is interchangeable and full of colorful dimension.

MOCA ARTIST: WEEK 3

Werner Hornung

Werner was born in Konstanz in Germany. He arrived in Paris in the early 1970s where he pursued a career in advertising. Apart from running his own studio, Werner always felt the need to fulfill himself through his own artistic creations away from the constraints of the advertising world. His first personal works were collages. Then he used the computer as a tool which allowed him to develop his artistic expression. He enhanced his work by using Photoshop. His personal work has been exhibited on the internet for some time and his participation in various competitions on the web has earned him several awards. For Werner, the most important element in art is the creative mind and not the medium.

“The most important software is situated at the right side of your brain and called INSPIRATION.”
                                                     "Blind Date"
""What does digital art look like? If looking at the work raises questions as to whether it might be a painting, print, or photograph, and the answer is "yes" to all three, then it is most likely a piece created from within the emerging digital aesthetic."
JD Jarvis "Going Digital""
For me, this artist work is extreme and unique.  He is very creative and detailed oriented with his work.  I find his work different with some of his tactics.  However, this is what we call “ART” in many forms and that’s the uniqueness of this artist!

Week 3 Tom Hubbard

Tom Hubbard writes, "I've come to digital abstract art after a lifetime career of realistic photography. I was a television director in Norfolk and Atlanta before becoming a newspaper photographer in Atlanta and Cincinnati. While at the Cincinnati Enquirer, from 1966 to 1978, I won 22 Ohio awards for photojournalism and two national awards, including a National Press Photographers Association award for best photo story coverage of the Senate Watergate Hearings.
"I now bring abstract elements to the foreground, elevating them from a supporting role to being the subject. I work spontaneously on a piece until I see a theme. Each work remains abstract, but I see a visual theme or narrative.
"Themes arise automatically from a store of experiences from my career in realistic photography. Good photography elicits an emotional response. I work until I perceive an emotion represented in abstract forms. Usually, I feel authorship. Other times, images manifest themselves from beyond my conscious awareness."

I love the abstracts and the colors like he said the images manifest themselves everyone will get a different take on the image her is the artist web page http://studiohonline.com/tom/

The banner says it, I've gone from photojournalism to abstract digital art. Both are on this site.
Take your choice from the links below. I've gone from one extreme to the other. I first did photojournalism/documentary where I faithfully rendered the  scene or event in front of me.
My abstract began on the computer in 2000, but I can see I was preparing for abstraction, from doodling in high school to finding abstract patterns in realistic photography. 
In photojournalism, the scene was in front of me. In abstract work, the image originates somewhere inside of me. I'm fascinated by this.  I call it "abstract," but it's not pure abstract because there's content lurking in those designs. I'd call it "surreal," but that term has lost its original meaning in normal usage. My work is surreal.  Form is supported by mental and emotional content.
I'm doing mostly the abstract digital now but I want you to see photojournalism where I started. There's a lot here so I hope you will bookmark my site and come back. Thanks for looking.

He also has alot on his photojournalism I love this picture belowDelta Queen

Week 3 posts

 
 
 
Adriana Ricciardi
I am graduated in architecture at Mackenzie University (São Paulo, Brazil) and I studied at Architectural Association School of Architecture (London, UK).
Now I am living in Brazil and working with interior design, digital art and photography.

As you can see I am a fan of abstract art I love colors and art that reminds me of colors put together and it creates a picture. Digital art looks like abstract painting. Could not find much information on this artist.
My work is based on digital photographs and 3d modelling.
