This installation of a contemporary work of interactive ink art includes a painting made of ink on highly absorbent paper, in which the interaction of the materials and painter crucially determined the resulting abstract dynamism. Viers standing in front of this work also encounter an animation generated from real-time computation from a camera view of the viewer interacting with the ink painting. This animation further expands upon the ink’s flow. Never repeating and infinitely generative, the work highlights the same energy, movement, and boundaries of unpredictability that have informed both traditional painting and today’s machine computation. This animated interactive ink work constitutes yet one more transformation of the endless variations of cloud in the area of East Asia.
