Plottables is a platform dedicated to pen plottable generative art.

Plottables

A project about nature and algorithm. It"s easy to enjoy the randomness of a rock. Inspired by East Asian stone collecting, Really Random Rock brings a collection of 350 unique and unexpected viewing stones that generate from the random output of a hash string. Each rock is fully plottable and derives its form from a closed-loop shape expansion algorithm that makes countless calls to a random function. Through the very nature of randomness, resulting forms may occasionally resemble familiar things such as faces, animals, or landscapes. These results are purely coincidental and are celebrated as chance occurrences ...for this is the very essence of stone viewing and appreciation.
A plotting guide is available at the website above. ***Render times vary***

An archaic mechanical technology projects images of microscopic biological structures from a thinner dimension.  Initial exploration yields four hundred samples of primary organisms from a vast invisible sea.  Composed of feathery, delicate rings of colorful cillia, these organisms are gently buffeted by an invisible current.  Some are densely intricate while others are uncomplicated. A very few are polychromatic. All of them are mesmerizing.

Every edition is accompanied by a physical, watercolor plot. Each plot will be made available to its owner for the cost of shipping. Details and schedule can be found in the project website.

This piece is a study of the interaction of simple rules, relying heavily on repetition to highlight how complex and subtle these interactions become.
