Casey Reas just sent out its second GroupC Broadcast with many juicy updates about new projects, exhibitions, workshops, courses, and related incidents.

New Works

Process/Drawing
bitforms gallery, NYC
4 March - 2 April.

The work in Process/Drawing employs ideas explored in conceptual and minimal artworks as focused through the contemporary lens of C.E.B Reas, a member of a new generation of artists using software as their preferred medium. Reas’s software and images are derived from short text instructions explaining processes which define networks.
The instructions are expressed in different media including natural language, machine code, computer simulations, and static images. Each translation reveals a different perspective
on the process and combines with the others to form a more complete representation. He employs the paradox in the qualitative nature of human perception and the quantitative
rules which define digital culture. Relations are created between evolved natural systems and engineered synthetic systems.
Organic form emerges from precise mechanical structures.
Strict minimal rules are tempered with intuition to form dense kinetic surfaces.
