Building and Toppling

via S M Johnson's minus1 plus6:

I think of the words within these pieces as having a relation to a photographic process. When I take a photograph with my camera I am finding images in the world which are manipulated through selection and fine tuning of colour, contrast, etc, into the final image. In working with words I use a computer script (using Python) which outputs a number of images, based upon a source text and applies a variety of algorithmic mechanisms, that I may then select from, fine tune, and blend with other images.
