Manuel Barbadillo, 1972

This screenprint is the outcome of a series of visuals trials carried out using a computer and a bespoke program (for an example of the original computer print out, see E.158-2008). Barbadillo wrote a computer program that would enable him to rotate the U-shaped forms within a grid, to produce any number of different patterns. The artist assigned the forms numerical values and used a series of rules to alter these values and to explore the relationship between the forms. Barbadillo would then compare the different outcomes in a sequence to decide which one was visually the most effective, and should be developed further into a screenprint, as with this work, or into a painting. By using the computer as a tool, Barbadillo was able to process much larger quantities of information than would otherwise have been possible.
