Artist/ Portfolio Exploration: C.J. Yeh

My Mondrian based on my data.

myData=myMondrian is an interactive digital art piece developed by fine artist, CJ Yeh, where the final outcome is a printable work of art made to look like a painting by Piet Mondrian, but is created using the user's data.

CJ Yeh's piece was originally an interactive installation piece at the Queen Museum of Art (2004). Gallery goers were asked to type some personal information into a computer, the software then created a Mondrian like image based on the person's data. These personalized Mondrian-eque compositions were then printed out and placed on the gallery walls.

 myData=myMondrian is not the only digital art piece inspired by a famous fine artist. His other digital work makes "reproductions" of Jackson Pollock  , Philip Glass, Chuck Close , and Rene Magritte's work. myData=myMondrian, as well as the other fun interactive computer programs are found on CJ Yeh's website under the Digital Art link. 

His website is also a great example of how flash can be used to navigate an artist's portfolio, you can use a navigator or links to browse around CJ's page. I would use the navigation, it seems to take you to pages not accessible through the links. Check out TypoGraffiti with the virtual navigator (it's to the far left, by Times Square and Penn Station), you also  might want to click the small circle between the links bar.
