''0001 iterated substrate'' by Jared Tarbell [http://www.complexification.net/gallery/machines/substrate/substrate0001.jpg] | |||
'''Substrate''' is a piece of generative art written in processing that creates a landscape looking a lot like urban plans. | |||
At the start of the program a couple of straight black lines are placed randomly on the canvas. They expand during the program, each line growing other lines at right angle but at random positions and at random times. This process is repeated for the newly grown lines. The expansion of a line stops when it collides with another line. | |||
Each line has a shadowish colouring of variable hue and amplitude to the left of the line's growing direction. | |||
Due to the different angles of the starting lines the growing image consists of distinguishable parts that could resemble city districts if the image was compared to an urban plan. | |||
'''Substrate''' seems particularly interesting as it creates beautiful patterns using a rather simple algorithm. | |||
