BIOI started with Artmatic in 2003. Originally I bought it when I switched to OSX to replace the Kai's Powertools texture-explorer plugin, that I used in photoshop to generate quick textures. I soon found out, that it was a very complex application, with the ability to generate many different kinds of images. I also realised that it was difficult to control and master. Actually, Artmatic is one of the most difficult applications I have ever used ( = a lot!).
Stubborn as I am, I have just kept building stuctures, trying to figure out how the individual tiles worked inside an Artmatic tree.
During this process, I have rendered hundreds of images. Now that Artmatic have it's own gallery at Renderosity, I decided to post some of these images here, to share with other people. The artmatic-systems I use is mostly quite simple, because I want to know, what is going on. On the other hand, I also like when the images has a strong and simple graphic visual expression.

Bio:
I am a freelance webdesigner, graphic designer, a soundartist and experimental musician from Denmark.
As a musician I use a Wacom drawingpad as my main instrument. I have developed this instrument so that it generates sound and visuals at the same time.

Hope you find these images interesting and thanks for dropping by.

These are real interesting. Not many do abstract art with AM, and you are doing some really nice work here. It may not be popular, but it deserves some recognition nonetheless since it is a proud and legitimate artform. Kudos! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for your comment. I have wondered if this was the right place to show my images, as they are left more or less unnoticed. I could probably get a better recognition, if I posted them to the fractal gallery. But it is Artmatic and what you can do with it, that is my interest, so in the long rung it might be better staying here. Perhaps some day some other Artmatic-artists show up, or I could perhaps inspire somebody....
