Mixed process, hand-worked

One-of-a-kind

Threshold is the first piece in the Singular program — unique works that exist in one physical instance only. It represents the boundary condition of the Vanguartisan process: three systems, one surface, one maker's hand.

How this was made

Seed input

Compute

Curated

Hand finished

Three generative systems were run in sequence, each seeded by the output state of the previous. The initial system was a cellular automaton; the second a particle physics simulation; the third a flow-field renderer. The final composite was printed at archival scale and then physically worked with dry pigment and a paring knife — removing material to reveal underlying structure. Time from first seed to completion: 11 days.
