Andrew O'Malley
Ottawa native Andrew O'Malley makes animated light sculptures, featuring finely crafted cases, hand-built electronics, and custom programming to achieve, as he puts it, "entertaining behavior through a playful balance between rules and randomness. I'm fascinated by the idea that a simple set of rules let lose in a system can create vivid and unexpected results. In pursuing such rules and algorithms, I program patterns that are entirely orderly, completely random, and sometimes somewhere in between. The most intriguing and visually pleasing of these end up in my light boxes.”Andrew has a formal background in electrical engineering and is a robot hobbyist. He also paints, does installation pieces, and, together with his wife Deborah, produces and DJs electronic music.
