  • MANFRED MOHR B.1938 in Pforzheim, Germany Lives and Works in New York, Since 1981
    MANFRED MOHR b.1938 in Pforzheim, Germany Lives and works in New York, since 1981 Manfred Mohr is a leader within the field of software-based art. Co-founder of the "Art et Informatique" seminar in 1968 at Vincennes University in Paris, he discovered Professor Max Bense's writing on information aesthetics in the early 1960s. These texts radically changed Mohr's artistic thinking, and within a few years, his art transformed from abstract expressionism to computer-generated algorithmic geometry. Encouraged by the computer music composer Pierre Barbaud, whom he met in 1967, Mohr programmed his first computer drawings in 1969. His first major museum exhibition, Une esthétique programmée, took place in 1971 at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. It has since become known as the first solo show in a museum of works entirely calculated and drawn by a digital computer. During the exhibition, Mohr demonstrated his process of drawing his computer-generated imagery using a Benson flatbed plotter for the first time in public. Mohr’s pieces have been based on the logical structure of cubes and hypercubes—including the lines, planes, and relationships among them—since 1973. Recently the subject of a retrospective at ZKM, Karlsruhe, Mohr’s work is in the collections of the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Joseph Albers Museum, Bottrop; Ludwig Museum, Cologne; Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Mary and Leigh Block Museum of Art; Wilhelm-Hack-Museum, Ludwigshafen; Kunstmuseum Stuttgart; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Museum Kulturspeicher, Würzburg; Kunsthalle Bremen; Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain, Strasbourg; Daimler Contemporary, Berlin; Musée d’Art Contemporain, Montreal; McCrory Collection, New York; and Esther Grether Collection, Basel.

A solo exhibition by Manfred Mohr, it featured the first display in a museum of works entirely calculated and drawn by a digital (rather than analog) computer. Revolutionary for its time, these drawings were more than mere curiosities – they signaled a new era of image creation, setting in motion a trajectory of modernism and information aesthetics. Using Manfred Mohr’s work as a touchstone, "1964-2011, Réflexions sur une Esthétique Programmée" reveals, through his art work, a critical period of development in media arts. It examines shifting perspectives in art and the working methods that made the visual conversation of information aesthetics possible. How the computer emerged as a tool for art, results from its capacity for handling systems of high complexity, beyond our normal abilities. Discovering the theoretical writings of the German philosopher Max Bense in the early 1960’s, Mohr was fascinated by the idea of a programmed aesthetic, which coincided with his strong interest in designing electronic sound devices and using scientific imagery in his paintings. Mohr studied in Germany and in Paris at the Ecole de Beaux-Arts, and in 1968 he was a founding member of the seminar 'Art et Informatique' at the University of Vincennes.

Abstract: We associate screens as information surfaces with western technological achievements and media cultural hegemony. The fact that similar screens are observed and manipulated in all cor- ners of the world is taken as a sign of the increasing homogeniza- tion of culture; a ‘global screen practice’ seems to be in the mak- ing. Still, although they may not have used the word screen, dif- ferent cultures have developed “screen practices” in very diverse cultural contexts for hundreds and even thousands of years. From the shadow theatre to the traditions of visual storytelling, screens have been used in countless forms, and associated with complex social, economic and ideological issues. Do these tradi- tions play any role at all when it comes to understanding contem- porary high-tech screen practices? Is there anything we could 1 possibly learn from studying them? This paper proposes a media- archaeological approach to understanding screens as intercul- tural information surfaces. Drawing on fields like visual anthro- pology and comparative cultural studies, it looks at screens from an extended perspective, making a contribution to “screenology”, a hypothetical field of study. Bio: Erkki Huhtamo is a media archaeologist, writer, and exhibition curator. He was born in Helsinki, Finland (1958) and works as Professor of Media History and Theory at the University of Cali- fornia Los Angeles (UCLA), Department of Design | Media Arts.

  • A Cast of Thousands
    :: 3Dgate.com - Your Source For All That Is 3D :: 1/23/02 10:36 AM A Cast of Thousands ILM Reveals Six Techniques for Creating Artificial Crowds. by Chris Tome On the day Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace opened at movie theaters, many companies in California's Silicon Valley gave their employees the day off. Even banks and insurance companies, it seems, fell under All images © Lucasfilm Ltd & TM. All rights reserved. Digital George Lucas' spell. work by ILM. One organization that might not have so been happy was the Screen Actors Guild. After all, it's not easy to get digital actors to pay their yearly dues. And make no mistake about it, The Phantom Menace is chock full of non-union thespians. The movie swarms with them—from humanoids to droids to alien swamp creatures. Notwithstanding prominent CG life forms such as Jar Jar Binks and Boss Nass (the subject of last month's in-depth character study), most of the film's artificial actors appear in crowd scenes. Concocted by the ingenious team at Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), these sequences present an utterly convincing cast of thousands, even when the actual number of flesh-and-blood actors onscreen is no more than a dozen, and sometimes none at all. How did they pull it off? In more ways than you can shake a light saber at. Some didn't even involve computers, such as the attentive audience of painted Q-Tips that fill the stadium bleachers during the pod race on the planet Tattooine. Digital technology did fill the stadium grounds and aisles, however, where a throng of animated human and alien figures was emitted by a Maya-based particle system that calculated their paths on the fly using artificial intelligence.
