“Art by Code” is about computer code, art & language, digital art, and conceptual art and artists who are pioneering powerful ways in bridging art and technology. Artists use code as their primary artistic tool. Their creations represent dynamic systems incorporating algorithmic rules, simulation of physical properties, and complex systems theory that are generated by a variety of unique and complex written codes.
We are proud to announce the following artist lineup:Reza Ali,Inigo Quilez, Matthew Cella, Ryan Alexander, Jon Kuzmich, Josh Nimoy, Antonio Cortez, Tiffany Trenda, Wes Grubbs, Kim Rees, Nolan Love, Kristin Henry

With “Art by Code” we aim to ignite the imagination of a new emerging generation and keep challenging the conventional ways of thinking about art and making art. The computer as the medium raises a host of intriguing questions and forces us to rethink what is art. The bay area artists have been generating increasingly complex visual forms with tools that rely on open-source. They use programs such as Java [processes], C++, [OpenFrameworks, Cinder], GLSL, JavaScript and AS3. These forms previously could not been imagined. The selection here represents a sampling of an explosive field and draws on the latest in computer technology from such fields like fractals, algorithmic processes, software art, generative art, data visualization, 3-D software, and much more. “Art by Code” is a triumph of human ingenuity and a tribute to artists who dare to imagine, invent, and test the limits.](https://s.evbuc.com/https_proxy?url=http%3A%2F%2F25.media.tumblr.com%2Fd6e25eb7a72912813aa5688a8fd74996%2Ftumblr_mob2ahTUD61qixx7ho1_r1_500.png&sig=ADR2i79ziFklGyl76-0SWXK52ji6mKZZ6Q)
Join CODAME ART+TECH in honoring the Art by Code artists in the groundbreaking exhibition that celebrates the spirit of creativity, innovation, and human ingenuity in the best tradition of the Silicon Valley.
The mostly bay area computer artists have been busily generating increasingly complex visual forms with tools that rely on open-source and use programs such as Java [processes], C++, [OpenFrameworks, Cinder], GLSL, JavaScript and AS3. These forms previously could not been imagined. The selection here represents a very small sampling of an explosive field and draws on the latest in computer technology from such fields like fractals, algorithmic processes, software art, digital illustration, 3-D software, and much more.
We hope to see many of you come in support of CODAME and the artists they promote so we can continue on this evolutionary path. Art by Code is here to stay!
Artists: Antonio Cortez, Inigo Quilez, Kristin Henry, Jon Kuzmich, Josh Nimoy, Matthew Cella, Nolan Love, Reza Ali, Ryan Alexander, Tiffany Trenda, Wes Grubbs & Kim Rees.
Reception in the Gallery followed by short presentations by artists who reveal secrets behind their creations.
