Statement
George Legrady is a media artist whose projects have explored the intersections of photography, computation and camera systems, interactive installations, and data visualization. He is a distinguished professor and former chair in the Media Arts & Technology graduate program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he directs the Experimental Visualization Lab. His research explores the nature of optical-mechanical, and optical-computational devices how they generate images that resonate at the conceptual, cultural, and aesthetic levels. A pioneer in bringing computation to issues of photographic representation in the mid-1980s, his contribution to the field has been in intersecting cultural content and algorithmic processing.
