Half a billion videos served, so far!
Innovation in imaging
As a two-time Emmy Award Winner and 6-time nominee, I have been an innovator creating images that I have shared over half a billion times. As covid kept many of us at home I found time to experiment with images in new ways. The results are here and I am sharing them online and in gallerys. I love to innovate!
About Alan Teitel, the artist
While much of my work has lived behind the camera or inside the algorithms of entertainment technology, I’m reaching out now to introduce a new chapter in my creative journey one that I believe aligns beautifully with the evolving landscape of fine art.
For decades, I’ve worked as a cinematographer and technologist, fortunate to have filmed around the world with extraordinary people and teams. I’ve had the privilege of creating films that inspired global action helping to protect children, save dolphins from tuna nets, and rescue millions of greyhounds. Some of my visual work has gone viral (a slow-motion match lighting drew over 2 million views in 10 days) and was even referred to by Michio Kaku as “science porn.”
Now, I’m applying that same passion for motion, light, and meaning to a new kind of visual art: fractal-based, mathematically generated images, printed using the most advanced 2.5D textured technologies. These prints bring color, form, and mathematical beauty into the tangible world some as wide as six feet each one entirely original and deeply detailed. They're created through code and logic, yet they radiate warmth, emotion, and humanity.
Some pieces are printed using lenticular techniques that add kinetic motion engaging viewers from multiple angles and reintroducing the dynamism I’ve always pursued through film.
If you’re curating for collectors who are looking for something truly innovative where mathematics, narrative, and texture merge I’d love to speak with you. I’m releasing new work each week and would welcome the opportunity to show the collection either online or in person.
Digital art is not Generative or ai art
This is art in 3 forms, no judjments
Digital art is created when an artist uses a computer, tablet, or other digital tools instead of traditional materials like paint or pencil. The artist still makes all the creative decisions choosing colors, shapes, and composition just like with a painting or drawing. Programs like Photoshop or Procreate let artists use digital brushes and layers, giving them lots of control and flexibility. It’s like painting, but on a screen, and the artist still needs skills and vision to create something beautiful or meaningful.
Generative art is a little different. Here, the artist writes a set of rules or a computer program that tells the computer how to create the art. The artist doesn’t control every detail directly but gives the computer a framework to follow. For example, the artist might tell the computer to draw a thousand circles of random sizes and colors. The final image is often surprising even to the artist because it’s partly shaped by chance or mathematical patterns. The computer does the drawing, but only after the artist carefully designs the process.
AI art uses artificial intelligence like programs that understand text or learn from images to create pictures based on an artist’s request. Instead of drawing directly or writing code, the artist might type in something like “a sunset over the ocean in the style of Van Gogh,” and the AI creates an image from that description. The artist still plays a key role by deciding what to ask for and refining the results, but the computer does most of the visual creation. It’s a collaboration where the artist guides the AI, but the final image is generated by the machine.

In short, I have been fortunate to have had wonderful experiences filming around the world with a huge collection of talented people. We created films that changed the world. Some of our work saved children. My team was able to save millions of greyhounds, and dolphins too. This is a link to a film that saved dolphins from tuna nets.
Compulsive Observer
My film and video carieer.
As a Cinematographer and compulsive observer, I have always shared clips that conveyed the beauty of the world around me. Michio Kaku called my work Science porn when he watched my match burn. I had over 2 million views in the first 10 days. Here is an interview I did for a TV show about that clip and my career.

The world of galleries has become content with fine art photographs. Photos totally created in a computer with the aid of actual photos as elements. We have tools now that allow people to create great works of art that express feelings and emotions while others not so much. Now we can do the same with video clips, turning them into art to fill living rooms as well as board rooms. I never expected that to be a market for my work...thankyou NFT's. This clip sold out.
