We tend to overlook that mathematics, much like any system of communication based on semantics, is, in fact, a language; and it is a language that has largely been ignored as a vehicle for textual Translation. Algorithmic Translations attempt to acknowledge this vehicular disregard by utilizing the mathematical functionality found in graphic imaging software. This utilization adds an element of dimensionality to a textual work by mutating a text into a kind of graphic, nonlinear entity. Through a series of algorithmic calculations, the computer program expels an abstract image based upon the original topographical placement of the type on the space of the page. This algorithm transforms each letter, each mark of punctuation, into dendrites that extrude into the continuum of the page.
