A Scheme Not Of This World
A Scheme Not Of This World is a collection of generative artworks. Created by Alex Russell, it uses a system called ApeiroPattern. The system has two parts. Firstly, there is a computer programme (code). Secondly, there is a library of scans of hand-made images. The code models a range of pattern-making and compositional rules. These are developed from methods used in a range of creative processes, including textile design, graphic design and fine art. When the code runs, it uses the rules to arrange the library images. Every new run creates a unique ApeiroPattern artwork.
The visual inspiration for A Scheme Not Of This World comes from maps and aerial photography, especially the abstract patterns within cartography or landscapes. The code transforms the hand-made content into complex images of imaginary topographies. Across the collection, there are also parallels with the idea of musical variation. The outputs play with the theme, sharing some qualities, yet each has its own unique identity.
