👋 Hi, I'm Adam. A computational designer and generative artist based in Los Angeles. I'm currently building Components AI, a startup creating new types of generative ai design tools.
In the past I've helped design and build products at OPower, Stitch Fix, Salesforce, The Grid, Cloudflare, and Publicis Sapient.
Pen Plots
Over the last few years I've been experimenting with using a pen plotter to draw svg output from generative programs. While generating a digital piece can be instantaneous, offering thousands of design options at the blink of an eye, a pen plotter can only go so quickly. I find this contrast to be interesting.
Most SVGs are generated using JavaScript, Go, or Python and optimized with VPype. I Interface to the Axidraw through Inkscape and the Axidraw CLI. For pens, I most often use Lamy Safari EF, Micron 01 and 005, or Staedtler pigment liner 0.1. Ink: Mont Blanc, Iroshizuku, or Diamine. You can read about my setup and process here.
Motion
I enjoy exploring what's possible with material shaders and procedural animations. Primarily in Blender.
