Jean-Pierre HébertDigital Fabrication 1980s Presented by: John Stout
Art Work That I Chose Triangulated Chance • I chose this piece of work because I liked the way it used simple lines to make different shapes and sizes. • Since Hebert only started using software design in 1984 this piece is still at the beginning of his digital works.
Triangulated Chance • Was made from ink on paper. • 7"x7" • It was Hebert’s first attempt to produce drawings using a small table plotter. • He used short text to draw lines in a pattern using red and black ink to create the triangles. • It is considered to be algorithmic art.
Algorithmic Art • Algorithmic art is mostly visual art that is generated using algorithms. • This means, basically, that Hebert had to create instruction for the computer to follow using mathematics and computer science. • Those instructions are the algorithms.
Who is Jean-Pierre Hébert? • Jean-Pierre Hébert is an independent artist of algorithmic art, drawings, and mixed media. • He is a pioneer in computer art • He merges traditional art media and techniques, personal software, plotters, and custom built devices to create original pieces of art.
Digital Art 1980’s • The earlier algorithmic art was drawn out using plotters controlled by computers. • The act of the Person writing the program is what made the works “art.”
