I have been diligently working on my small flickr collaging application. I have been experimenting with masks and like the effect of these triangle shaped masks. I hope to have the kinks worked out by next week and get the tool live online.

The majority of visual artwork and experiments I have been making over the last year deal with a set of controlled random parameters and image collages. The images below are early output tests from a small application I am working on that pulls images from flickr based upon a tag search. I hope to have a working version of the application up soon.

searched: face,close up, black and white.

searched: eyeball, close up.

I will eventually create a project page for this work with installation views, more detailed process description, the .pde file, etc.

Mobile devices were used as the tool of documentation to reflect the transitory way that many of us experience these neighborhoods. The resulting media has then been re-imagined via various computer programs to create both visual “postcards” of Gowanus.
