kid pix
I create art with Kid Pix, a painting program for children from the 1990s. It's the first computer program I ever used, and currently, it runs on a Windows 98 virtual machine. During the creation process, I use filters for locating and enhancing interesting pixel structures. I venture deeper and deeper into networks of pixels, and become entangled as an artist with my strange machine. In this technically endless creation process, my role as an artist constantly shifts between initiator and observer. What are the properties of the snapshots that I decide to keep? How long can I follow the trail of pixels before I end up where I started again?
viewing tip: you can zoom in infinitely on the artworks due to the CSS property 'image-rendering: pixelated'.
