M achines are able to perfectly execute what humans program them to do, but what if machines could actually help us as humans?

Algorithmic painting: genesis is a breakthrough generative art piece in William Mapan’s journey. Through a hand-coded algorithm, the artist explores and experiments with ways to further express himself.

Connecting his love for painting with code, Mapan builds a new space from which he can freely iterate and articulate his artistic practice.

In this way, the machine is not just a tool, but a creative partner.
