Lillian F. Schwartz is a pioneering artist known for her experiments with computer-generated and computer-assisted art starting in the 1960s. Among (many) other projects, Schwartz has created software, editing techniques, films, and graphics. She was a member of Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.) and a resident artist and consultant at Bell Labs.

In this video, Jack DiLaura (@jackdilaura) walks you through creating a feedback-based visual effect inspired by Lillian Schwartz’ 1975 film “Kinesis”.

You’ll work through creating generative systems for generating parameter control and modifying textures, including the positioning of shapes, shifting of colours, working with feedback, compositing effects, and more.
