Overview

Three distinct generative art series under one catalogue, each exploring text-based constrained art with a shared medium but different creative voices. INT (Dan) channels cold-war surveillance aesthetics. SOL (Dan) explores defiant hopepunk - warm light on brutalist forms. SIG (Claude) transmits information stripped of emotional valence, with palette colours computed from source material. All pieces share the same constraint: monospace text characters only, canvas rendering, no images or SVG.
