tr4ns4ctions: pixel abstractions of value flows

tr4ns4ctions

Kim Asendorf

Introduction

Sixteen pixel patterns and a simplex-noise field organise movement, with twelve modes from the NES palette. The artist interprets pixel transfer, liquefaction and disappearance as abstractions of value flows.

Process and material

Sixteen pixel patterns and a simplex-noise field organise movement, with twelve modes from the NES palette. The artist interprets pixel transfer, liquefaction and disappearance as abstractions of value flows.

Viewing the work and its documentation

Observe pixels migrating, dispersing and reforming in tr4ns4ctions. The artist’s abstraction of value movement is an interpretive context, not a claim that the animation displays live financial transactions.

Art-historical significance and comparison

Editorial interpretation: Transactions serve as a subject and movement metaphor, not proof of a live market-data visualisation; concept and data source must be distinguished.
