Images from 1979 - 1992

The images on this page were produced with different types of PC, and photographed from the screen.

The works shown here demonstrate once again Franke's wide-ranging interests, which include the use of random-number generators, image-processing, numerically-controlled machine tools, iterative techniques, fractals and even a series of experiments with music produced on the self-constructed wind instrument of colleague Bruno Spoerri.
