“This is a direct video output from the iPad’s HD screen which generates the animation in realtime at 1024×768. It’s based on my previous animations and ‘Zio’ – my iPhone app. It’s created by complex algorithms and random generation, so you never get the exact same animation everytime you run it.”
The video was produced by codemaster Glenn Marshall with music by Brian Eno.

Elna Frederick has some really unusual javascript art up to play with. It’s not often you see something like this and whether you like it or not, it’s an interesting idea to generate interactive art via javascript.
Wow, really strange and unusual but I really dig it. I love work like this that kind of breaks new barriers and defies explanation. I didn’t even know what category to file it under.
Erik Natzke is an interactive artist who works to blur the lines between art and technology with a Flickr-folio bursting with colorful abstract compositions.
