Sara Ludy’s "Deep Pond" is the newest animation from the series "Clouds" that pushes the constraints of software defaults to evoke natural phenomena. Through extensive layering of amorphous movement, "Deep Pond" emerges as a cosmic field swimming with artificial lifeforms. Without the use of outside source material, these animations are generated from within their native program as intuitive manifestations. "Clouds" reflects the desire to explore computer systems in order to find a personal connection with machines.
