Early computer art pioneer Roman Verostko will give an artist's talk to MA Digital Media Arts students.
Two years ago Verostko won the 2009 SIGGRAPH Distinguished Artist Award for Lifetime Achievement. He lives in the USA and is in the UK for a short period of time, so we are very honoured to have such a unique opportunity to hear him talk about his pioneering work, as not only is he a great artist but also a great orator.
Members of the Faculty and other MA students in particular are welcome as are undergraduates who would benefit from hearing him talking about his work.
Quote about Verostko: "He is an artist who creates algorithmic art. Verostko developed his own software to control a line plotter that produces unique pen and ink drawings. He also modified the plotter to hold an oriental paintbrush."
