Claude McCoy is a digital artist who works within the genre of algorithmic generated abstract art. Claude states all his work is a product of “examining multitudes of iterations they can produce until the "keeper" image appears.” Considering the computer provides the image, the artist must be the critic who allows the images into their gallery. McCoy uses common mathematical programs and occasionally adds digital photography to the images. I liked the images in his portfolio because it further explored the possibilities of mathematically generated images in addition to our fractal projects.

  1. " the artist must be the critic who allows the images into their gallery." What a great quote... another analogy I use is the digital artist is an explorer, bringing back images of new discoveries.

  2. His image almost looks 3D with three very different images incorporated. I like it.
