//random thinkings

{This week I had a lot of fun (and also pain) working with patterns. Having the code to generate multiple things that a human cannot generate in such instance is always something I am eager to do. I am very into the patterns created that sync with the sounds when visual and sound artists like Alva Noto and Ryoji Ikeda are creating in their performances. So this week when doing the patterns, I started with revisiting their works to get some more inspirations. Yet, I also wanted to explore how to create randomness and surprises from repetivity versus patterns within iterations. Thus the piece I created has several layers that try to play between this duality.

//Inspirations


//Thoughts when writing the code

The more I get familiar with code, the more I felt it is like calculating the binary equations. While for that we are trying to calculate x and y through the relations, here we are trying to define the variables and find their relations. This feeling is the most prominent when I am looking for the diameter and ellipse numbers’ relation when doing the for loop for the concentric ellipse (which is much simpler than I thought it would be).
