Tamara Muzner has posted many of the videos that were made at the Geometry Center, where I spent the first eight months of 1995. That was a remarkable time, with powerful new methods for sculpting and drawing, electronically on the computer. Keep in mind that a compass and straightedge, literally, was my most precise tool until just a couple of years earlier!
Thank you Tamara, for this gift from the past!

Here are some moments in the video:
