Generative Animation via Graffiti Research Lab



The Graffiti Research Lab (GRL) put on this cool project using the KPN Telecom building in Rotterdam Netherlands. Much props to GRL!!! On Feb 7th - 10th 2007, they showed GIF animations from various artists using large green screens placed inside of each of the building's windows. Each window is basically a pixel, so the animations going in are very small (22 x 41 pixels), yet the final display screen is over 200 feet tall. I of course submitted a randomly generated animation, and its safe to say that this animation is both the smallest and the largest generative art project in history! :)

Here is the original computer generated GIF:
