Casey Reas on Eyeo2012

When looking at the art work displayed in the presentation, I was conflicted on whether or not I liked it. I genuinely enjoyed the idea of how he made the artworks, as I am interested in generated, repeated patterns, but I didn’t actually love the end results too much. To quote Kristopher in class, some of the pieces did look a little too “crowded” or “busy”.

I enjoyed how there is a balance of semi-abstraction vs. complete abstraction, as in the pieces (including some of the other artists he talks about such as mondrian who did the colorful squares we all have seen at least once [mondrian works] )

Overall, I agree with my peers that the video tended to be a bit on the monotonous side, but overall, some interesting concepts of chaos and abstraction were explored.
