Artists pushing the boundries of Digital art

Here is an artist, Robert Hogdin, trained as a sculptor, who has found a creative outlet using digital media..... some of it is open source software, some is self- created, some from collaborating with others on ideas....

He describes being interested in magnets and most of his work uses magnetic "behavior" to create the images...

All of it is AMAZING visually! I wanted to show them to you and have you notice the artist's use of colors, images, textures and mostly- TIMING in the work..... how could YOU use those elements in your animation?

Check out this link.....

Here are samples of his work..
