Perfect Squares #1
This piece is from my project “Painted Paths,” where I use a large, customized pen plotter to execute perfectly positioned brushstrokes. While the path the brush takes is controlled by my code and the machine, the results are anything but perfect due to variation in how I load paint for each individual stroke; the surface variations in the canvas/medium; and brush, paint, humidity, drying time, or other environmental variables.

Experimental Life
I’ve never been one to conform, and I’ve never limited myself to one creative medium: I write, I shoot (photographs/video), I code, and I make.
To organize my work, I’ve developed what I call Creative Frameworks:
- Blockchain Art
- BLONKS
- Chainlife
- Crypto Ecosystem
- Digital Art (Page Under Construction)
- Experimental Film
- Generative Physicals
- Haiku
- LIGHTS
- Literature
- MFA (Matto’s Fine Art)
- Zenerative
All individual projects can be explored through my project gallery, project timeline, and project table.

At the Still Point of the Turning World: Algorithmic Self Portrait, 2025
At the Still Point of the Turning World #0 (live render, animation off)
I find myself in a world of chaos and turbulence, of confusion and disorder. At the still point, I—or perhaps we—find ourselves, yet we are never truly still. This work is both a meditation and a portrait of modern awareness: an algorithmic reflection on the search for calm within uncertainty.
The title echoes a line from T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets, which contemplates presence within time and the dance of the living moment.
A pen-plot of At the Still Point of the Turning World: Algorithmic Self Portrait, 2025 #1 will be on display in the Durham Art Guild’s 71st Annual Juried Exhibition!
