OUT PLACE no. 3

2024

Plotter Drawing

23.5"x33"

Description

In OUT PLACE, Shojiro Nakaoka transforms sound into drawing. Using programmatic code, he converts audio files into visual data that guide robotic arms, thereby translating sonic vibrations into intricate pen plots.

OUT PLACE #3 layers dots, lines, and sweeping curves in dense rhythmic patterns that recall early computer art while expanding it with motion and texture. Thick, calligraphic strokes contrast with delicate constellations of ink, revealing the range of gestures Nakaoka’s machines can perform. The series reimagines what it means to listen, rendering sound as something visible and tactile.
