Contour drawings form the aesthetic core of his artwork. The results resemble graffiti that seems to write itself. His work explores the relationship between naturally evolved systems and engineered synthetic systems often, precise mechanical structures give birth to soft organic forms. Conceptually, the works can be understood as minimalist exercises with Reas developing all the software and electronics used for his artwork. softwareARTspace, founded by Steve Sacks, owner of bitforms gallery in New York and Seoul, IAMAS and ICC in Japan, the Microwave International Media Festival in Hong Kong, and the Sonar Festival in Barcelona.

Levin received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the MIT Media Lab. Levin applies creative twists to digital technologies that highlight our relationship with machines, make visible our ways of interacting with each other, and explore the intersection of abstract communication and interactivity. The drawings are scanned from sketchbooks, and form vast digital library of source material for Patersons virtual collages. Reas writes software to create drawings and live animated installations. Departing from traditional techniques, Paterson experiments with code and authors programs to assist him with all areas of his work.
Software will present four of these artists and one artist team, and their created with software to be experienced on computer monitor Golan Levin, Lia, James Patterson, Casey Reas and LeCielEstBleu, the artist team of Kristine Malden and Frdric Durieu. Golan Levin is an artist, composer, performer, and engineer interested in developing artifacts and events which explore supple new modes of reactive expression. Using software as the intermediary, Paterson applies animation concepts to drawing, and vice versa.
He has shown at P.
