Niku is a slow generative sketch made with processing and the HYPE library by the magnificent Joshua Davis. I use it as a painting/drawing machine that also puts me in the role of a photographer. The aim is to snap the ‘best’ shots. After I play/learn/enjoy tweaking parameters, I sit with one finger on a button, listen to music and disappear in the simple tumbling of these two people in space. Niku challenges me to shoot/select and ask the annoying question why one image output 'works' and an another not. Niku plays with my mood.
