Algorithmic artist creating digital art with code. My work is often, but not always, in the style of photorealism. I use algorithms to draw trees, birds, and powerlines among other things.

City Out There
Bout To Rain (Jan/Feb '24)
The world turns a certain shade of turquoise when it's about to rain.
NFT on FoundationCampus (Jan/Feb '24)
I sat there a lot, outside of the Main Building. Between the hard surface of the wall and the Texas heat, it was never comfortable, but I always preferred it over simply going home. At least if I sat there, in the open, the Universe had access to me and theoretically something interesting could happen.
NFT on FoundationWildfires Haze (Jan/Feb '24)
As I was getting ready to move to New York last year, there was a rather crazy week during which NYC was covered in heavy orange smog from Canadian wildfires. Part of me questioned the move, wondering to what extent NYC was an attractor for apocalyptic episodes.

Siding No. 1 (fall 2023)
This piece emphasizes the use of generative textures. The siding of the house, in particular, is all generated with code. The wood grain texture on each slat is generated and applied individually to the slat areas. Even the shape of each slat is generated to have a subtle noisy edge. There are no perfectly straight lines in the real world. The crack on the green wall utilizes the same noisy-line algorithm, but is made much more prominent. NFT on objkt
