New Aesthetic artist James George has been making art out of code for a few years now, and has often employed Microsoft tech in his process. Microsoft must have noticed — George was invited to spend three months as the first-ever artist-in-residence at Microsoft Researchs Studio 99, where hes had the companys digital toolkit at his disposal to create new works of art. I had a moment a week in where I felt like a kid in a candy store, George told FastCo.Design, that feeling of overwhelming happiness of all the possibility, and also the knowledge that if I ate all of the candy, I’d feel sick. George thus spent three months creating three pieces during his time with Microsoft.
