Album Notes

With the spiked eye candy and fractal arabesques of Spotworks, Scott
Draves has significantly raised the bar on digital psychedelia and the
broader category of abstract animation. His electric sheep are the
fluttering Gaian spawn of networked computers and genetic algorithms,
while his visual 'dubs' of Ernst Haeckel's fin-de-siecle scientific
lithographs add a resonant historical dimension to trippy
visuals. Mind-melting stuff, and refreshingly devoid of the usual
fungal kitsch. --Erik Davis, author of Techgnosis and contributing
writer to Wired Magazine


This isn't just tripppy wallpaper -- it's not even just art. This is
garage-band artificial life. Draves is cooking up a new species made
of code, decisions and cooperation, and this disc is a petri dish
swimming with the organisms that deserve to succeed us here on
Earth. I for one welcome our new a-life masters. --Cory Doctorow,
Author of Eastern Standard Tribe and co-editor of Boing Boing.
