Minerals 12 – Dottore

9000’s Plan 9.001 set contains curious semiotic remixes, hybrids and diagrammatic transformations of popular signs, symbols, and identities. The juxtaposition of unconnected, but familiar glyphs on faded backgrounds creates poetic, and at times amusing concurrences.

Vladimir Bulatov’s small mathematical metal sculptures vary from polyhedral knots to symmetrical crystalline forms, all of them intricately organic and finely finished. Mathematical models are transferred a metal printing machine, which assembles the actual sculptures from thin (0.002 inch) layers of stainless steel powder.

Digitalslaves collect a futuristic set of abstract and broken curves generated in VVVV. These arcs appear to be centrifugally held together by a kind of plasma or electronic spark.

More VVVV work comes in the form of Dottore’s generated Minerals, multitudes of semi-transparent triangle extrusions collectively align in undulating formations.
