Isoline - Étude #16

Generative art
Abstract

Isoline is a generative, contemplative, and hypnotic series of works. The starting idea: to play with properties that change according to zones. Here, these zones are isolines, the lines of equal distance around geometric shapes, like the contour lines of a map.

Two networks of isolines are layered on top of each other, and each zone changes its own parameters: the ink, the line thickness, the offset of the pattern, the margin. Even the pattern is made of very fine isolines. It is this layering that makes the composition rich and interesting to look at.

You watch the geometry slowly evolve, the zones glide, the inks breathe, with the aesthetic of a print on paper. It is this project that served as the foundation for the Résilience series.

The video is an exact one-minute loop: it returns to its starting point, with no cut.

Camille Roux

France

Camille Roux is a Montpellier-based artist who makes art with code. A computer engineer by training and an entrepreneur for fifteen years with Human Coders, he is first and foremost a curious person. It all began in 2021 with the desire to learn to draw: a class with an artist friend, then increasingly geometric drawings, then the iPad, before going back to the computer to code what he wanted to draw. Today he writes algorithms that turn mathematics and physics into organic patterns. Each series is a program that generates an infinite number of unique pieces: each one is drawn at random at the moment it is born, and no one, not the collector, not the platform, not the artist, knows in advance what will be created.

He started out by releasing his works as digital editions (NFTs), which found collectors around the world. His series Intricada was presented by Bright Moments in New York, London, Mexico City, Berlin, and Tokyo, among others. The Source, created with Matthieu Segret, was unanimously selected by gm.studio. In 2024, his work for Bright Moments Finale was shown in Venice during the Biennale, alongside pieces by more than sixty international artists. A member of the Generative Artists Club, an international collective of artists who share techniques and works in progress, he also enjoys introducing this world to others at major French developer conferences: he will give the opening keynote at the upcoming DevLille, after closing DevFest Toulouse and SunnyTech.

More on digital art

Generative art

Generative art refers to a way of creating artworks using an autonomous system. In digital art, these are usually generated from code and algorithms created by the artist, often with certain predefined parameters or systems. Although these parameters guide the final outcome of the work, generative art is generally a surprising way to create artworks, as the results are often unexpected and the number of possible outcomes can be infinite.

AI art is a branch of generative art that uses artificial intelligence. Unlike other generative artworks, AI artworks use specific complex algorithms and models derived from machine learning. The most common methods for creating AI art today are GANs (generative adversarial networks) or proprietary prompting platforms such as ChatGPT, Sora, Midjourney, or Dall-e.

3D art uses 3D software such as Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, or video game software such as Unity to create works of art. In 3D works, artists can either arrange assets (the 'objects' in a 3D artwork or world) that they have created themselves or purchased from other creators to create elaborate environments and scenes (an approach to 3D art called 'set dressing'), or specialize in sculpting, which involves creating their own objects and assets.

Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry is a specialized 3D technique that allows 3D objects to be created from numerous photographs taken of an object or scene from multiple angles. These photos are then compiled to determine the specific positioning, shape, and dimensions of the object in space, and then converted into a 3D model. Initially developed for engineering and urban planning, photogrammetry has become a way for artists to produce extremely accurate 3D models from real-life images.

Collage

An extension of the traditional, plastic approach to collage, digital collage involves searching for and cutting out multiple images, extracting them from their original context, and recomposing them in a new arrangement to create a work of art. Artists can use their own photographs or find images on the internet.

Illustration

Digital illustrations are created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Procreate. As with drawing on paper, the artist uses a stylus to sketch a figure or object, usually on a tablet, to construct a scene or artistic universe. Unlike traditional drawing methods, digital illustration is much more forgiving, as mistakes can be easily corrected and drawn elements and objects can be easily moved around within a scene.

Video

Video artworks primarily use a recording camera, but may sometimes include additional post-processing or editing to distort, modify or add additional elements to the image. Some artists use state-of-the-art recording equipment to create macro zoom-ins or time lapses, privileging fidelity to the subject matter. Others use additional softwares to significantly modify or warp the video, creating an alternative perspective on the world that surrounds us.
