BUDDHA.BROT

The Buddhabrot Set is a re-visualization of the familiar Mandelbrot Set using a technique invented by Melinda Green. Instead of selecting points on the real-complex plane, initial points are selected at random from the image region. The point is iterated through the function, z = zˆ2 + c, where z has components in both the…

BONE.PILES

Bone Piles is an iteratively generated collection of simple organic shapes tied together with increasing complexity. With each new instantiation, the bone is given unique attributes computed at random and according to the progress of the iteration. Both rotation and scale are set in this fashion. As a final, important step, the instantiated bone takes…

BINARY.RING

A system of path tracing particles evolves continually from an initial creation. Ages of darkness play arbitrarily with ages of light. The particle object used in this project is a sibling of the Path I particle.

NINE.BLOCK

The nine block is a common design pattern among quilters. It’s construction methods and primitive building shapes are simple, yet produce millions of interesting variations. Individual blocks are composed of shapes in a 3×3 grid, from a set of 16 primitive shapes. Blocks are radially symmetric, so the shape and rotation for only three grid…

MOONLIGHT.SOYUZ

Moonlight Soyuz is a rendering of a human performance of the first movement of Beethoven’s 14th symphony, the ‘Moonlight Sonata’. The note information from an actual human performance of the piece was recorded and translated into graphic shapes. Notes played have been symbolized by textured blocks. Notes are arranged with time passing across the horizontal…
