Infinitely Scalable

Infinitely Scalable Paintings
One of the chief requirements in setting out on making art with code was that my work would be infinitely scalable; that everything I create be able to be boiled down to simple math. As such, the artworks I create are saved in a custom format. The only limit to the size of an uncompressed image I create are the same restrictions placed on everyone.

Gigapixel Paintings
My work is created with the intent of being large oversized prints in a cavernous space, allowing viewers to approach from afar and experience how the image falls away into the parts and pieces that make up the larger work. In order to simulate this experience online, I create videos and feature my paintings as navigable Google Maps on my website.
