DIFFERENTIAL.GROWTH

Thirty years of programming and all I can do is watch in amazement as this specially connected force-repulsion network grows. Programmed in Processing By Jared S Tarbell

VENATION

The veins below are composed of thousands of self-similar cells linked together. Randomly distributed hormone sources alert nearby cells of their location.

IMAGINARY.MACHINES

I was contracted by an imaginary client to build an interface for their imaginary machines. This project connects nodes in a ribbon lattice similar to the sacred Tree of Life.

BLACK.SNAKES

Geometric, highly angular black snakes vomited from my spiritual psyche. Snake components occupy virtual grid, slight variations in relative angular placement perturbs the final form.

HEAD.EXPLODE

Head explode, get new head. These images are created from a long exposure particle scattering machine.

NINE.DOT.THING

Combinatoric system connecting nine dots arranged in a 3×3 grid. There are 362,880 possible combinations with rotations and reversals allowed.

SPIRITUAL.NOISE.MACHINE

Long exposures within a Perlin Noise field machine. This sketch began as a BlendMode test within the Processing development environment.

BLENDED.ENDS

A randomly subdivided quad tree fills the voids with blended lines. Each line is drawn from top left to bottom right, with an offset midpoint and thick colorful halo.

BLENDED.ARCS

Subdivided regions draw partially completed circles as pie sliced arcs. When stacks of arcs overlap each other, the machine inverts both layers, multiplies them, and then inverts that result.

BLENDED.TRIS

Another algorithm in the Blended Arcs and Blended Ends modality. Recursive regions are filled this time with triangles, eventually becoming tiny villages of computational gnomes.

SPACE.FLIGHT

Endless generative flight through a field of stars inspired by my partnership in Deep Space Coffee. Flying through a field of stars was one of the first great computer programs I remember as a child.

FAR.AWAY.PIXEL.GALAXY

Somewhere in a pixel galaxy, far far away… Programmed in Processing By Jared S Tarbell
