Topic Circles: Josh Davis „Carnivore“ vs. Max Bill „16 Constellations“

On 28, Feb 2009 | No Comments | In Basics of design | By Markus Dermietzel

As I recently strayed through the still wonderful "Praystation" of Joshua Davis, a beautiful topic of "classic" graphic design, which is continuously edited in the digital age, became apparent to me. The wonderful "Carnivore" of 2002, dynamically in Flash generated transparent circles of Joshua Davis, are very similar to the graphic experiments in "16 Constellations" (1975) of Max Bill. Forerunners of these experiments were started by Bill already in the 30ies of the 20th century.
