Paths of Thought #18

Description

Inspired by the work of Georg Nees, this project uses various rules to connect vertices to lines, building many chaotic shapes. By constraining these shapes into a grid, we can achieve a regularly chaotic artwork. And by reintroducing a bit of randomness in the size of the cells of the grid, we end up with an irregularly chaotic work. From this mixture of regularity and chaos, of lines and vertices, arise multiple questions about the many possible paths that everyone can take at any given time when faced with a decision. Whether we take the simplest or the most twisted path, whether we free ourselves from the limits or whether we stay within the imposed bounds, whether we take the most obvious path or whether we look for the most astute one, in the end, we too often have the impression of going around in circles... As always, it's complicated! --- You can downloads various SVG versions of this artwork : 1/ open artwork in live view 2/ Press 0 to 4 to get a plottable SVG : - 0 for a printable SVG, which use alpha transparency for filling (default mode) - 1 for 0.1mm pen tip plottable SVG - 2 for 0.3mm pen tip plottable SVG - 3 for 0.5mm pen tip plottable SVG - 4 for 1mm pen tip plottable SVG 3/ If you are asking for a plottable SVG, you can press C to get separate hatching colors for each alpha transparency filling color, which allow you in Saxi to use different pen colors for hatching. Press C again to cancel this mode. 4/ Lastly, press S to download the SVG (matching your previously selected style) If you need a confirmation of the SVG settings you selected, double click on the artwork. --- Coded with care, and with the help of p5.js and p5.js-svg libraries. Consider any bug that you could get in your edition as a blessing from the RNG Gods !
