Thinking Machine 4

"The artwork is an artificial intelligence program, ready to play chess with the viewer. If the viewer confronts the program, the computer's thought process is sketched on screen as it plays. A map is created from the traces of literally thousands of possible futures as the program tries to decide its best move. Those traces become a key to the invisible lines of force in the game as well as a window into the spirit of a thinking machine."

It was suggested during my last crit that I may want to take a similar approach in creating a drawing in which this drawing is generated. Basically a series of possibilities or opportunities are mapped out, much like what I attempted to do in my last drawing, but in a more organic way. A less linear interpretation of the site will show the true nature of the system that I'm creating.
