Merging Programming and Artwork with Tyler Hobbs #ArtTuesday
Tyler Hobbs uses programming to give shape his art with the patterns that computers and software do naturally. Here’s more from Art the Science:
For me, art and science co-evolved in different stages. Growing up, I was always creating artwork, and I wanted to study that, but Computer Science ended up being a much more pragmatic thing to study during college. My love for artwork never subsided, though, and after working as a programmer for a short while, I renewed my focus on it. By that time, programming had become a large part of my life, and I knew that in order to be a good artist, I needed to involve it in my artwork somehow. I began to experiment with ways to merge programming and artwork, and really fell in love with the idea of “writing a program that creates a painting.” That’s how I first thought about it, and in many ways, that’s still how I think about my work.
Every Tuesday is Art Tuesday here at Adafruit! Today we celebrate artists and makers from around the world who are designing innovative and creative works using technology, science, electronics and more. You can start your own career as an artist today with Adafruit’s conductive paints, art-related electronics kits, LEDs, wearables, 3D printers and more! Make your most imaginative designs come to life with our helpful tutorials from the Adafruit Learning System.
