Description
‘Glitchometry’ takes algorithms designed for sound editing and sets them loose on images, twisting the data into strange new patterns. Each image begins as a simple geometric shape; a circle, triangle or stripes. As they are composed, the artist sees the image only as a soundwave, with no immediate way to monitor the visual result of his edits. Temkin paints with a very blunt brush that has a mind of its own. ‘Glitchometry’ is a wrestling with the computer, the results of which are abstract compositions, exhibited as vibrantly colored backlit prints and monochrome large-format works on canvas.
