Mutual Assembly

In the low-lit industrial environment of Vander Detroit, ten LED panels animate the darkness. Grids of glowing lights coalesce into transient images, shifting and warping through the passage of time. Each of these displays contains a hand-coded generative artwork created by a member of Creative Coding Detroit (CCDET). The show exhibits members’ breadth of skill, as five experienced creative coders have been paired with five new coders in a mentor/mentee structure, embodying the group’s objective to provide access to creative growth for its members.

Mutual Assembly, the forthcoming exhibition by Creative Coding Detroit, brings the globally-recognized genre of generative art home. In the city that created Techno, Mutual Assembly responds with visual works following a similar logic of loops, repetition, noise, functions, and attention to detail.

UN SUSTAINABILITY GOALS

We use Detroit's UNESCO City of Design designation as a call to action for Detroiters to embrace the Sustainable Development Goals in their own communities, contributing to the active effort of solving global interconnected issues.
