An Artist Composes, The Computer Draws

Frank Mauceri, talks about his work with computer generated drawing and animation. Frank is
a teacher, composer, and artist from southern Maine, in the United States. His computergenerated
line drawings and animations result from designed, generative systems. His graphics
work reflects his background in music. He will discuss recent work and its relationship to sound,
sound synthesis and experimental composition.
“I work to create processes, leaving traces I don’t yet recognize. Beyond their mere existence,
these traces invite me – and, I hope, others – to discover and invent the sense or meaning they
have, in the context of the processes that left them. I depend on surprise and disorientation,
both in the course of making work and in my encounters with the finished results. I use the
computer as a tool for stipulating procedures and constructing systems. I am drawn to systems
that organize materials at every scale – where the logics of local actions accumulate to form
large scale structure. Rather than make the patterns I want, patterns emerge from the systems I
want.”
