UAL CCI: Introduction to Creative Computing Intensive 2022: 📆: Discussion 8: Tehching Hsieh, Every Icon and RadicalArt.info.
Back to slide index.
The artist of the afternoon is Tehching Hsieh.
His most famous work is "One Year Performance 1980-1981" - he spent 12 months punching a time clock every hour, on the hour, 24 hours a day. Read more here.
I think alot of Tehching's work is about time passing and repeating a set of instructions, which is why he's perfect for this afternoon's lecture - which was on exactly those things!
Another algorithmical artwork: Every Icon (1997) John F. Simon, Jr. New York Times article about the work.
An amazing resource of all kinds of art relevant to this course:https://www.radicalart.info
What questions do you have for me?
Thanks! See you tomorrow at 1000 sharp!
