Open a larger version of the following image in a popup: A striped, diagonal composition made from multi-colored fibers stretched across a redwood frame as one would stretch a painting. The fibers are knit at varying thicknesses so that in places one can see through the stitches to the wall behind. The pattern is geometric with two axe-shaped designs rising up from the rest of the picture

An artist with inherited Fluxus leanings (Al Hansen is the artist's Grandfather), Channing Hansen relies upon chance in the creation of his work. Introduced to knitting in 2009, Hansen drew upon his work as a computer programmer to develop Algorithms that would dictate the materials and composition of his textiles. Using organic materials, primarily wool gathered from conservation-breed sheep, the artist dyes, spins, and hand-knits his work based on patterns determined by the computer. "Assume Emphasis" is from a new series that represents Channing Hansen's most direct engagement with AI to date. In this case, rather than build an algorithm using an external data set, Hansen hired a data scientist to write an AI machine learning program using his past work as the data set. The dimensions, patterns, colors, and even titles of previous Channing Hansen artworks were fed into the program, which then generated a set of instructions to create “a Channing Hansen artwork”—or, at least, what the AI thought a Channing Hansen should be.
