Waiting for Bárðarbunga (2015)

Art installations can use procedural generation too: generative art has quite a bit of history. Here’s an example: inspired by the possible eruption of the Icelandic volcano Bárðarbunga, François Quévillon created this video project that uses footage of the site and the equipment monitoring the site. The display recombines them, using the unusual input of the computer that is running the installation. The fans and power draw of the machine are translated into the non-linear presentation of the video production.
