Cursor Lines & Drawing Machines: Interview with Marcel Schwittlick

Listen Later

Marcel Schwittlick is a Berlin-based artist best known for his work with drawing machines. We have been fans of Marcel's work since we first discovered his Upward Spiral series and have been following from platform to platform since then.

In this interview we discuss:

  • Marcel's background in art and coding & how he discovered NFTs
  • The "generative-ness" of his work with drawing machines & building entropy with cursor lines
  • Honoring pens and ink with his The Long Run series
  • How the Octet performance came about & using A.I. to network 8 different plotting machines
  • The influence of the Concrete art movement on Marcel's work with Luminograms & his upcoming exhibition of Composition 92 at Paris Photo (and here is a link to the Verse page for his works & others)
  • Marcel's thoughts on Tezos and Ethereum, and whether he would replace a lost or destroyed physical piece for a collector

    • Thanks to Marcel for taking the time to speak with us for the show. You can learn more about him and his work on his website, schwittlick.net and you can follow him on Twitter @schwittlick_
