Person

Jon McCormack ist ein australischer Medienkünstler und Computerwissenschaftler. Er hält mehrere akademische Grade in Angewandter Mathematik und Computerwissenachaft an der Monash University, ein Diplom in Kunst (Film und TV) an der Swinburne University und einen PhD in Computerwissenachaft an der Monash University.


Wissenschaftliche Tätigkeit

Jon McCormack ist gegenwärtig außerordentlicher Professor in Computerwissenachaft, besitzt ein Forschungsstipendiat (ARC Australian Research Fellow) und ist Co-Direktor am Center für Electronic Media Art (CEMA) an der Monash University. CEMA ist ein interdisziplinäres Forschungszentrum zur Erforschung neuer Beziehungen zwischen Computerwissenschaften und den Künsten.

McCormacks Forschungsinteressen erstrecken sich von Generativer Kunst und Design, Kreativität, Visualisierung und Interaktion bis zu Maschinellem Lernen, L-Systeme und Entwicklungsmodellen.


Künstlerische Tätigkeit

Seit den späten 1980ern arbeitet McCormack an Computercode als Medium kreativen Ausdrucks inspiriert durch die Komplexität der natürlichen Welt. Seine Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit künstlicher elektronischer Natur, die eines Tages die natürliche, biologische Natur ersetzen könnte, die durch den menschlichen Fortschritt verloren gegangen ist.

Seine Kunstwerke wurden international durch bekannte Galerien, Museen und auf Symposien gezeigt, etwa im Museum of Modern Art (New York, USA), Tate Gallery (Liverpool, UK), ACM SIGGRAPH (USA), Prix Ars Electronica (Austria) und dem Australian Centre for the Moving Image (Australia).
