Currently based in California, Indiana-born artist Camille Utterback stands at the fore of interactive art. Utterback programs custom algorithms for the purpose of “embodiment,” where viewers can sense their bodily presence in a virtual environment. Utterback uses her digital tools to generate a style of art known as Digital Abstraction, which updates a previous generation’s innovations in traditional media with data computation and the processing power of microchips. Utterback said, “The rules of Untitled 5 are carefully constructed to create an overall composition that is organic, open, and evocative, while still being completely algorithmic.”
