the V01D

Joshua Davis’s the V01D is a programmatic artwork capable of generating tens of thousands of visual outputs. Written from scratch by Davis, utilizing Java, Processing, and GLSL shaders, the software operates in real-time, using over 9,800 lines of code.

Because the V01D is an algorithmic piece of software designed to create art indefinitely, it is not limited to a fixed timeline of animation or length. The program can produce unique visual compositions where no two are ever the same.

For the Open Worlds launch on May 18, the V01D‘s real-time audio-reactive algorithms will respond dynamically to DJ Stretch Armstrong’s beats.
