This large-scale, video installation was created by a custom set of software programmed by the artist to explore the “abyssal plains, organic patterns, and generative forms that emerge from digital feedback algorithms.” Using open sourced hardware and software, Ferriss’ work explores his interest in the creation of naturally evolving forms from purely numerical input, by creating graphical data that recursively influences itself.
