I visit the DOJO of The Sensei to chat about how it was creating computer art in the 70’s and all things NFTs, Art and Life.

I made a guest appearance on this Abstract Art NFTs Twitter Space hosted by abstract artist Alisha Anglin. We talk about my journey as a computer artist, and all things generative / abstract art and NFTs.

Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art, Chicago, Feb 1 - Mar 16, 1980. Original exhibition description from 1980: Computer Aided Graphics is an exhibit featuring the medium of computer graphics. It is the youngest medium to challenge traditional media since photography. Dr. Herbert W. Franke, author of one of the most significant books on the subject entitled Computer Art – Computer Graphics, states that it was in the year 1965 that aesthetic Computer Graphics "became more generally known". In that year there were two exhibitions of computer graphics as aesthetic imagery…

We had a great conversation about the origins of generative art, and my journey as a pioneer of the form in the early 70’s to present day.

Flip was not my student, rather an undergraduate assistant in the Department of Engineering Graphics at The Ohio State University in the early 1980's where I taught for a while. I helped him with his academic plan to graduate. According to Flip I introduced him to Chuck Csuri. It was the beginning of a life-long relationship. Read his insightful account of Chuck’s immense contribution, as an artist, and human being.

The pioneers of Generative Art are finally getting their due. This article features a couple contemporaries of mine: Charles Csuri, whom I had the privilege of knowing in the early 1980's, and Vera Molnar, who contributed to an exhibition of Computer Art/Computer Graphics I guest-curated in 1980. Both true OG's. It is so interesting to me to see the journeys these early pioneers took from those early days, through the ensuing decades to the present where they are receiving the acclaim they are rightly due.

Dr. Bill Kolomyjec ascribed to Computer Art a role that would shape society, and span the chasm between art and culture on the one hand, and science and technology on the other.
