  • Mystic.Rose

    Mystic.Rose

    Detailed explorations of a complete graph of points equally spaced around a circle.


  • ASEMIC.ILLUSTRATION.1

    ASEMIC.ILLUSTRATION.1

    Uninterpretable technical diagrams in the asemic writing tradition. This is a place and test algorithm using four geometric objects. The point source object, a randomly placed position from which everything manifests. The arc, a curved line with a centroid around some point source object. The radiant, a straight line that originates on an arc and…


  • SHIPIBO.PATTERN

    SHIPIBO.PATTERN

    The Shipibo are an indigenous tribe that live in the Amazon Jungle in Peru. During ceremony, a particular pattern is seen and heard by these people as a description of the reality of nature. I have seen it too. The visual pattern is not what is actually witnessed, but an attempt to represent it in two dimensions.…


  • NODE.GARDEN.2020

    NODE.GARDEN.2020

    A darker, more contemplative return to the Node.Garden from 2004. 10,000 nodes are organized along snaking spine objects. The spines emanate from a computationally defined path. The path is a ring in some cases and a straight horizontal line. in others. The rendering process for this algorithm uses a multi-step approach. One by one, layers of the…


  • DIFFERENTIAL.GROWTH

    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 In Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Around 10:01am December December 11, 2019 Derived from prior work by Symmetries In Chaos


  • IMAGINARY.MACHINES

    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. A multi-mode blending technique screens colors together while also multiplying darkness. Labels are added post-construction, randomly assembled from two word lists (adjectives and nouns). Early…


  • ABANDONED.ETSY.MANDALA

    ABANDONED.ETSY.MANDALA

    My last project for Etsy.  It was to be a mandala, a custom generated visualization of friendships, favorites, and shop activity with you at the center.  My most ambitious project, abandoned in early 2011 when I chose to leave the company. Programmed in Flash AS3 By Jared S Tarbell In Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Around January…


  • ORBIT.CLOCK

    ORBIT.CLOCK

    Nodes orbit a central location in groups of variable intervals.  Lines connect nearby nodes.  Syncopated cycles move groups of nodes around a central location. The elements of the clock construction are exposed over time. Movement reveals a tapestry of relationships.
