1000 Variations
Bill Ralph
 

This work was made specifically for the busy visual and physical environment of the Learning Commons. The 1000 images that comprise this piece are the output of a single mathematical algorithm. "This algorithm was designed so that each frame incorporates similar compositional elements as well as a new idea I had for balancing colours. Although the images are outwardly different, it becomes clear after viewing several of them that they are tightly connected like we are being shown 1000 variations on a shared visual theme".
