60 min • 28 maj 2024

Long time friend and artist Alejandro Campos joins WTBS for an interview ahead of his upcoming 'Fantasia' release on Verse. In this episode we discuss:

  • Alejandro's background in art and coding, how he got involved with NFTs & the origin of his original 'Ratchitect' artist name
  • Why Alejandro uses music in many of his projects & starting to discuss generative art through the lens of web design and experience.
  • Tackling problems and ideas that nobody else has before & making the p5.brush library + the work that goes into launching an open source project
  • Unearthing and reviving the defunct AI model that powers the music in Fantasia, Alejandro's upcoming Tender collab release on Verse
  • Where Fantasia sits in relation to the Enfantines series and Pensado a Mano
  • Popping off more about experimenting with interactivity, animation and sound in generative art + revisiting web development
  • Will there be more projects after Fantasia & disillusionment with web3
  • The story of Generative Architecture: The Making of a Room on Verse and the potential to curate more in the future
  • The weakness of 'digital' as a tool for preserving art
  • Rapid Fire!

Thanks to Alejandro for coming on the show! Be on the lookout for Fantasia coming to Verse in mid-June.
