Description
Portraits by Martin Grasser is a TRAME collection of generative artworks and Venetian-glass mirrors. Grasser uses algorithms that detach letterforms from their conventional shapes and assign colors to the letters of the alphabet, producing abstract visual languages from words and phrases. The collection includes multiple individual works and mirrors that invite viewers to shape the artwork’s narrative.Category: Uncategorized

Description
Interplay by Nada Debs reimagines backgammon as an intersection of traditional craft and generative design. Each board is handcrafted in Lebanon with marquetry by master artisan Nabil Haswani, while creative coder Anna Lucia developed an algorithm that translates marquetry assembly into evolving digital patterns. Users can generate unique digital board variations shaped by the algorithm's rules.Category: Game

A Thousand Layers Of Stomach
Project Links
Description
A Thousand Layers of Stomach is an abstract work by A.A.Murakami that explores nature and technology through creative code replicating processes of Asari clam-shell formation. A custom on-site knitting machine turns that code into expansive textile wall pieces, accompanied by a film about humanity’s connection to the sea. Debuted at Art Blocks Weekend in Marfa in 2024 and later presented at NOMAD Abu Dhabi, visitor-generated digital knits become panels in a living tapestry intended to evolve as it travels to museums and cultural events.Category: Uncategorized
