Thinking Machines
Thinking Machines displays the traceries of machine thought as a computer plays chess. The result is a signage of artificial thought, and a mutable gylph set of evolving computer strategy.
Chess House is an architectural isomorph of a game of chess. Habitable space is mapped from the motion of the individual chess pieces as they move about the board.
The final 3d renders, with their strong sense of perspective, have a metaphysical quality about them (as in Giorgio de Chirico)
Each game of chess can generate a different building! So each room is a kind of subset of chess strategy
