This artist let me know that music can also be expressed in art. The form of art has no boundaries. I was inspired by him and will continue to explore other skills I have. Continue to integrate innovation and develop new and different works of art.

His early computer works are algorithmic and based on his former drawings with a strong attitude on rhythm and repetition. His art works make me feel very novel. I often use computer programming to solve some problems, but I never thought about using algorithms to implement art works. In his works, I easily see the shadow of computer algorithms. This is very interesting to me, I will definitely try it myself and find the mode I like.
