100x100 Computational Design Challenge

Throughout 2020 I created 100 computational designs in 100 days as a way to learn creative coding and explore generative art

Day 59 - Exploding Star

The fourth day manipulating this swarming, radiating base code. I love seeing all the different possibilities you can get in a drawing just by making small tweaks to the program. Today, I’ve replaced lines with rectangles. Things got a bit seizure-inducing as I messed with this one, but I like where it landed. I didn’t want it to feel too splattery or too perfectly round, I think I found a nice balance.

The colour palette was inspired by the beautiful work of Copenhagen based illustrator, Carmen Law.
