Description
Cyberflower IV, 4. 29" by 23", 2000. Algorithmic pen and ink drawing on paper with artist's studio seal in red. The seal characters read "Little Path Studio" for "Pathway Studio"

“Cyberflowers” son flores digitales cosechadas desde el universo virtual generadas a partir de variaciones de trayectoria de líneas curvas empezando desde un mismo conjunto de coordenadas. Este mundo virtual y sus habitantes digitales están todavía inexplorados, pero ya es claro que es desde este espacio que llegará, para un renovado placer estético, la cultura visual del futuro.

Notes: Some years ago an artist colleague entered Verostko's studio and saw his algorithmic pen plots for the first time. Spontaneously and with some gusto, he exclaimed "Computer flowers!". Since then the algorists of the late 20th Century have been generating a cyber landscape with many faces . Verostko believes we have seen only the tip of a huge continent of unbelievable dimension, a marvelous world of form to be explored and enjoyed in the 21st Century. These cyberflowers, harvested from this new world, are several of his best at the turn of the Century.
The algorithm driving this series generates its curvilinear procedures from a single set of coordinates. Algorithmic improvisations based on a single set of coordinates introduce a self similarity that permeates the form on several levels.
