Elevator pitch: 21-11-2023-11-31-35-input_gb-po-1913 borrows from an image of the cubist painting by George Braque's Violin and Sheet Music on a Table (Petit Oiseau). Keeping the same ratio of the original work, and employing a technique referred to as "deep frying", Arcangel has written code to recursively tweak an image using common image manipulation techniques such as compression, re-sizing, and modulation. Arcangel's manipulation of the original source material ultimately reaches a transformational breaking point surfacing new representational possibilities at the intersection of figuration and abstraction.
