The PopGen Project
The PopGen
Project - Make the machine do the work!
PopGen is a term that refers to
population-based recruitment of patients and controls for the
analysis of complex genotype-phenotype relationships in the medical
research field. This art project paraphrases the term into a populous
aggregation of images relating to art and culture that examines how
humans interpret complex visual information when juxtaposed with
visual cliches relating to popular culture and technological change.
It uses the juxtaposition of seemingly random or opposing imagery to
create a new reality.
The base images are initially created
with net.art generator (NAG), a computer program which collects and
recombines images from the Internet to create a new image based on
search terms. These are then assembled into metamontages in
Photoshop. Clip art images with transparent backgrounds are sourced
from Pngimg.com, a free Creative Commons library and then overlayed
into the finished piece.
The PopGen Project was developed as part of my current investigations into generative systems and art. It is featured as my contribution to The Perfect Users 2019 Pavilion as part of The Wrong Biennale. I am honoured to be included among some of the best digital artists working today. The exhibition will also have a physical presence at the Anno Domini Gallery in San Jose, California next year from April 3 2020.

dadaland collective: @ The Wrong Biennale
International collective of digital
artists comes to Bega as part of global art event
dadaland collective: an international
group of digital artists coordinated by Bermagui artist Bob Georgeson
are exhibiting their work in Bega during November and December. The
collective came together in 2018 through Facebook groups to be part
of The Wrong Biennale, a global event celebrating digital culture.
The Wrong Biennale is the world's largest ever art event with nearly
2000 artists exhibiting online and at various locations around the
globe.
The 18 artists from 7 countries work
across a variety of mediums including video, sound, graphics and
performance that not only explore how technology can be used to make
art, but also how technology impacts on human interactions. Much of
the work is influenced by, or references the Internet. Glitch,
generative art, computer graphics, smartphone creations and
environments created from information all are featured.
The collective is Tim Tsang (USA), The
Implicit Order (USA), Elle Thorkveld (USA), Milica Raicevic (Serbia),
Darko Vukic (Serbia), Gabriela Green Olea (Australia), Jose Ramon
Alcala (Spain), Kerry Baldry (UK), Parch Es (Mexico), Stefan Ljumov
(Serbia), Yvana Samandova (France), Michael Szpakowski (UK), Borjan
Zarevski (France), Miloš Bojović (Serbia), Yartn Saloan (Mexico),
Systaime (France), Andrew Stys (UK), and Bob Georgeson (Australia).
The exhibition opens at midday on
Friday November 1st at Sugar Sounds in Bega with a live
performance by local duo The Sugarants. It is the first of a planned
series of art events at Sugar Sounds as an adjunct to their music
business.
The exhibition links through to The
Wrong Biennale Epicentre in Valencia in Spain. It is an exciting
opportunity to see some of the world's leading digital arts
practitioners in an intimate setting.
The exhibition runs until Saturday 14th
December. Check Sugar Sounds Facebook page for opening hours. Sugar
Sounds, 203A (upstairs) Carp St, Bega.
