Fractalic landscapes



Under the name of subblue, Tom Beddard creates the most wondrous fractalic virtual structures, which he beautifully renders up to the point that we can say that the former laser physicist is now really maturing as an artist. People who now still not believe that humans can create things that are as beautiful as natural creations, open up to your unconscious, and pay attention to this stuff.

Breed: artificially evolved sculptures




Dutch artist couple Driessens and Verstappen present another step towards computer generated product design.

From their website:

"Breed is a computer program that uses artificial evolution to grow very detailed sculptures. The purpose of each growth is to generate by cell division from a single cell a detailed form that can be materialised. On the basis of selection and mutation a code is gradually developed that best fulfils this "fitness" criterion and thus yields a workable form. [...] Currently the objects can be made in nylon and in stainless steel by using 3D printing techniques. This automates the whole process from design to execution: the industrial production of unique artefacts."

dynamical fractal animation





I created this animation to explain visually the basics of the dynamical systems approach to perceptual-motor skill acquisition, a particularly powerful and elegant theory that I use as an input for the design of a wearable technology for yoga practitioners.
