Interference – a network dropping out, white noise on screens – is seldom welcome. Yet without it, we might not encounter new perspectives or discover new stars. At Jodrell Bank Observatory, scientists regard interference as unhelpful noise or

The November 1973 issue of Scientific American featured an article titled “The Recognition of Faces” by Bell Labs researcher Leon Harmon that explained how we perceive pixelated digital photographic images. Using a low-resolution, portrait of

This study presents an evolutionary system which generates images representing myths of human culture as synthetic identities. The myths are described by categorized terms and combined by genetic algorithms producing new individuals. Objects are

Digital video installation 1 monitor colour, silent An interactive single monitor work with one computer, using simulated recombinant genetic algorithms. The viewer sees themselves reflected in a maze of mirrors within the work whilst the

"Sacred Code" is a rumination on three holy texts:The Old Testament, The New Testament and the Koran, as seen through a digital lens. In this new artwork, Napier has created algorithms that read these three books bit by bit, literally reading

A work using simulated recombinant genetic algorithms. The piece used two live computed image sources for two of the monitors, one prerecorded computer animated sequence and two live video feeds from surveilance camera's installed in the space. A
