Sol LeWitt is a famous American Artist who came up with the idea of wall drawings. A wall drawing is a set of instructions (a text description and optional diagram) outlining a visual structure to be executed on a wall. Based on his work, Casey Reas came up with the technological version called Software Instructions in which he came up with a set of instructions to be executed visually via a program. The interpretation is typically in the hands of the person executing the instruction. For more Information you can check it out HERE.

I decided to take inspiration from Casey Reas' instructions and make a few of my own instructions and create works that are interpretations of those instructions.
SoftwareInstruction1.mp4A surface filled with circles of the same size moving at a relatively slow speed. Show the intersections of any circles that come into contact with each other but do not show the intersecting circles themselves.
SoftwareInstruction2.mp4A surface filled with at least 100 lines connected to a single point.
SoftwareInsruction3.mp4A surface with at least 100 lines connected to a single ever changing point. Show the connections in the present as the brightest while past connections fade away.
