CENTURY-XXX-METAKELLY #777

CENTURY-XXX-META is a large fx(hash) project by Casey Reas consisting of six individual 1,000 edition series paying homage to some of the most influential pioneering figures of computer and generative art. Each series draws aesthetic inspirations from the chosen pioneers iconic work. CENTURY-XXX-METAKELLY pays homage to the pioneering figure, Ellsworth Kelly, who experimented with randomness through multiple facets during his creative process. Aesthetically, Casey’s series draws resemblance to Kellys historic piece, Spectrum of Colors Arranged by Chance. When CENTURY-XXX-METAKELLY first loads, an array of scattered squares are generated and then adjusted column by column depending on pure randomness, either turning each individual square blank or leaving it filled.
