About

Hello! I’m Nathan Selikoff, an artist and programmer, designer and developer. My award-winning artwork has been shown in competitions & galleries around the world. Using the computer as my primary artistic tool and pulling from such diverse areas as chaos and population simulation, I mix mathematics and the traditional elements of design to create experimental cutting edge art.

While some of my pieces only exist in virtual space, often my work is destined to be a print, video projection, or interactive installation. Join me in exploring the border between art and science!

In the world of chaotic dyna[...]

Download as PDF Helios at Art Koltsovo The methods and consequent appearance of [Nathan’s] work remind me of mid-century modernists, particularly Iannis Xenakis… He worked with Le Corbusier and designed the Philips Pavilion for the Brussels World’s Fair in 1958. The swooping parabolic forms of the pavilion bear much resemblance to Selikoff’s swirling mathematical shapes. Rex Bruce, Curator Los Angeles Center for Digital Art Nathan Selikoff’s image proved to be another example of m[...]
