In Ordnung

In Ordnung is a generative book project that translates geometric primitives into a narrative system of algorithmic composition. Beginning with simple elements such as points, lines, triangles and circles the work gradually develops into increasingly complex structures generated through code.

The project is a personal homage to Frieder Nake, pioneer of algorithmic art and my former professor – not through visual imitation, but through a methodological engagement with rule-based generation.

It explores how minimal computational instructions can produce unexpected visual and conceptual systems and how constraint itself becomes a creative framework.

Combining code, generated drawings and reflective text, the book unfolds as a single algorithmic-literary structure in which each chapter extends both visual and conceptual logic. The line appears not only as a geometric entity, but also as a carrier of meaning: Situated between human decision and machine execution, order and chaos, system and interpretation.

What begins as a study of geometry gradually becomes a reflection on algorithmic art as a process of translation between thinking and computing.

In this sense, In Ordnung treats algorithms not merely as technical tools, but as poetic material.

It expresses my design and art philosophy: Extracting systems from simple rules, working iteratively and treating algorithms not only as technical tools but as poetic material.
