This is my artist’s statement — it’s how I work
I love the artist’s statement, “Blah blah blah blahblah blah blah…” I wish I knew who to credit for it — maybe it’s just an artist’s urban legend. I’m opting here for Show & Tell. To know me, see how I work. I ask “what if” and then find out. So I’m full of questions? So was the ‘satiable Elephant’s Child. Endearing, yes?

Image Tricks Compound Eye
The first two files here are from way back. They’re made by software other than Image Tricks — but I just realized that today. The first has been worked on by FilterForge’s Phase Shift (by garbanzo). It breaks the image up in a way I find interesting. The grid in image 2 is from a yet-unidentified developer whom I will seek out.
Compound Eye makes the grid but stutters the image across, showing more of the lefthand part of your image on the left and segues to more of the righthand image at the right. Actually not quite as interesting as the other two but still fun to play with.
Variations on Compound Eye are used in artworks #3 through #7. Image Tricks has a vast number of other algorithms to alter your image. Reasonably priced, lots to like.
