Artist bio
All of my interests brought me to the generative first and then to the glitch art. I focus on area which I call ‘generative glitch’ which means: producing glitches by own algorithms. My goal is looking for new techniques and methods for it. So mainly I create tools for other people and help them create unique things.
I’m active member of Facebook groups like: GAC, G//R, GAC:TT, Sonic Art Guild, and few others.
