How books fit into my practice

My work explores how individuality exists within systems of repetition. I create algorithms that generate infinite variations, then make them physical through machines like the risograph, pen plotter, and laser cutter. Each piece emerges from code but carries the marks of its making: the grain of the ink, the wobble of the pen, the unpredictable behavior of analog processes.

In my practice books are a collective and focusing force. Where a single print captures one moment from an algorithm, a book holds many, with page after page revealing variations from the same generative system. In How to Read a Gradient, each spread pairs a transformation with its logic, teaching readers to recognize patterns through repetition. Revelations plots each page on translucent vellum so previous drawings ghost through subsequent ones, accumulating meaning as you turn. Maze Zine uses a magic fold that lets readers cut and refold the sheet, creating their own paths through algorithmic outputs.

The book becomes a container for seriality, a way to show not just what an algorithm made, but how it thinks.
