Jason Strachan
I'm a South African-born artist and coder based in Melbourne, Australia.
My work starts as drawing and rarely stays still. The images keep running and changing after I've stopped working on them, and I build the tools that make that possible.
Selected works
- Vessel & Goblet
A browser-based tool for drawing animated low-res images with pressure-sensitive brushes, dithering, shape fills, and colour cycling; its exports keep running instead of flattening to video.
- Memories Woven
Three animated pixel works built from memories of growing up in South Africa; patterned rooms and landscapes open like portals, each with a figure seen from behind.
