Statement
The "Evolved Virtual Creatures" project was developed in 1994 at Thinking Machines Corporation. I was an Artist in Residence there,
and was given the task of showing the computational ability of their Connection Machine (one of the first parallel processing supercomputers) in a visually demonstrable way.
This was the last project of a series, the others being 3d animations ("Panspermia", "Primordial Dance", and "Liquid Selves") and the interactive exhibit "Genetic Images".
