Abstract:
Dreams in High Fidelity is a painting that evolves. It was designed and rendered with the Electric Sheep screen-saver, a cyborg mind composed of 30,000 computers and people mediated by a genetic algorithm. Physically it consists of a small computer driving a large liquid crystal display. The image is abstract, slowly morphing, and non-repeating.
