Face #7
Dave Fischer

Dave Fischer creates images in PostScript using the text editor 'vi'. PostScript is known as a format for printing images to screen and paper, but many overlook that it's actually a fully featured programming language.

For more information, read Dave's notes on his computer graphic work, and if you're interested in PostScript itself, have a look at this field guide.

And here's the PostScript for the work 'Face #7'.
