Quicki-Mart Time Smear

Temporal time smear generated by processing some video footage with the Studio Artist temporal scan tracker.

Paia DriveBy

Video frame capture taken while driving through Paia subsequently processing in Studio Artist 4.

MSG Recursive IO interactions

Classic patterning generated by recursive IO routing of geoemetric warp processors in a MSG preset created by directed evolution in the Studio Artist 4 Evolution Editor.

MSG Directed Evolution

Working with directed evolution with MSG presets in the Studio Artist 4 evolution editor. There's a fractal patterning thing going on in this created by some geometric transformations in the preset.

Circular Symmetry Broken

MSG procedural abstraction.

MSG Symmetry Mosh

Trying out some temporal generator experiments with a complex abstract MSG preset. The MSG animation was then processed by the Studio Artist 4 temporal scan tracker with a vertical scan direction.

Tron

In the spirit of the re-release, a tron-like rendering. MSG procedural source abstraction preset with built in symmetry.

Mixture of truchet patterning and space-filling curves in a procedural MSG preset.

Asian Cuisine

Some local color taken near the 'venice of the pacific'.

We Pack Your Picnic

Video frame capture taken in Paia processed in Studio Artist 4.

Do Not Feed the Hippies

Read the fine print on the sign. They bite!

Vectorizer processed freeze frame from a video taken out the window of a moving car.

Circuit Board

This started with an abstract MSG procedural image. It was then processed with a few interactions of a full screen Studio Artist paint synthesizer fractal mapping effect. It reminds me of an integrated circuit chip layout.

Grid Overlay

Truchet grid overlay on top of some additional MSG madness. Created via directed evolution in the Studio Artist 4 evolution editor.

Traffic Flow

Temporal smear generated from some video footage take while driving through Paia in the late afternoon. I used the Studio Artist 4 temporal difference matte to process a video sequence into a static image that smears time.

Geometric Simplicity

Abstract procedural image generated using Truchet processors in a Studio Artist 4 MSG preset.

Space Filling MSG Abstraction

Abstract procedural image generated in Studio Artist 4 with MSG processors that draw space filling curves.

Skateboard with Santa

Skateboarder in Paia shot with a pocket video camera. The video footage was processed with the Scan Tracker 2 in Studio Artist 4 using smart seam interpolation to generate the static time stretch image.

Abstract Procedural MSG

Abstract image generated via directed evolution of MSG presets in Studio Artist 4.

MSG Sunrise

Sunrise brought to you via a Studio Artist MSG preset.

Petroglyphs

The synthesized brown paper discussion on the Studio Artist User Forum recently inspired me to take a stab at an automatic stylized petroglyph effect. Here's 2 examples generated from source images of people.

Facial Sketch Abstraction

Combination MSG and image operation effect to generate a facial abstraction sketch effect.

Sundown Near Paia 3

Another processed video sequence taken out of the side window of the car while waiting in the late afternoon Paia traffic jam.

Sundown Near Paia 2

A little further down the road still waiting in the late afternoon traffic jam. Studio Artist processed video frame capture.

Sundown Near Paia

Temporal video processing image taken while waiting in the late afternoon Paia traffic jam near sunset.

Stylized MSG Patterning

Some crazy MSG preset using some of the new Studio Artist 4.03 MSG processor features. Kind of different for me. It's got the symmetry thing going on inside of it.

Recursive MSG Abstraction

MSG abstract procedural image. You can tell it has recursive IO (input-output) connections going on in the way it's modularly programmed. Since it was run on a 4 processor cpu you get 4 horizontal bands associated with the recursive part of the effect and the fact that the processing is threaded 4 ways during multi-processing.

Here's a tip that talks about what i mean when i say recursive io connection if you are clueless about the terminology.

BW MSG Abstraction

Interesting black and white abstract MSG preset. It's got a traveling salesman problem optimized closest path algorithm generator buried in there.

Cafe Mambo

Another Paia traffic jam video shot taken at sun down. A frame capture was processed with the vectorizer in Studio Artist 4.

Paia Sunset

Sunset shot taken with a video camera in a moving car. The video frame capture was processed with the Studio Artist vectorizer.

Mabanzi Mini Gig

A stripped down Mabanzi marimba band playing in Wailuku before an experimental film showing.

Mana Foods

Vectorizer processed shot of Mana Foods taken while sitting in a Paia traffic jam.

Big Wave Action

The north shore of Maui sees a lot of big wave action during the winter months. This started with a frame capture from a video taken driving on the Hana Highway, which was then processed in Studio Artist using a MSG preset.
