Algorithmic Composition and Permeable Boundaries

Studio Artist user Otto Laske has recently put together 2 very interesting pdf documents that discuss his approach to algorithmic composition for the creation of digital fine art.

Also some MSG running through a brush, then making a video of that with an alpha channel, then making that a…

Whats going on with this site?

Has anyone else gotten a warning about this site disappearing? An email form just popped up, asking me to contract the owner and leave a message to let them know that they may loose their "network"Did Synthetik forget to pay it's bills, or is something else going on?I think 8 months is more than enough vacation time.
