toca me 09 - joshua davis |
joshua davis is renowned for pioneering an original method of computational, generative art known as dynamic abstraction. his works won countless awards and are exhibited in museums around the globe.
besides works for clients such as motorola, bmw or amp, he is bringing his computer generated compostions into product design for umbra and miquelrius, and traveling the globe for exhibitions and conferences - current position chicago.
have a look at joshuadavis.com for more info PLUS it’s always a good choice to visit his flickr site to get an idea about his latest works, travels and - of course - tattoos.
he’s been part of TOCA ME design conference from the very first moment. last time was back in 2005 (have a look at this) - more than 3 years - so we are very happy to welcome him back in munich!
toca me 09 - jer thorp |
jer thorp is an artist and educator from vancouver. his digital art practice explores the many-folded boundaries between science and art.
we suggest to check first blprnt.com, jer’s unique collection of organic flash experiments and generative artworks. have a look at plumage, treegrowth and the other projects listed there.
then go further in learning about emergence, the way complex systems and patterns arise out of simple interactions, and agent oriented programming in projects such as colour economy.
for his current project glocal have a look at his flickr site and at glocal.ca
after attending his presentation in brighton we can’t wait to listen and watch him again on the TOCA ME stage!
white house 2.0 |
we already stumbled across obama on facebook, but didn’t know that you can follow him on twitter and watch his latest family pics on flickr.
just wonder if he will find enough time during daily business to continue twittering and feeding his flickr account.
oh - and have a look at this one.
toca me 09 - gmunk |
within the next weeks we will present you some more info about the speakers of the upcoming TOCA ME design conference 09.
first up: BRADLEY MUNKOWITZ aka GMUNK
bradley is the creative head behind GMUNK, a one-man production house specializing in motion graphics and based in los angeles. before getting settled he was a real design globetrotter - working for heavy in nyc, vir2l studios in europe, engine design in australia and imaginary forces in hollywood.
have also a look at the interview published at ventilate. there you will find also some recent works like res.
we had the pleasure to meet bradley at this years’ flash on the beach in brighton and have been totally blown away by his great presentation - amazing works and a lot of behind the scenes stuff.
so look forward to a full motion graphics package!
