The work was created by user Playgrdstar using p5.js. It is constantly changing its shape , angle, diameter and colour. It constitutes shapes in different dimensions. The distortion seems random as the shapes transit, but shapes before and after distortion are programmed to have specific characteristics. They look symmetrical from time to time.
This image fascinates me because it’s a combination of randomness and computation. The blob looks just like the view inside a kaleidoscope, or pinkish ink dropping in water unpredictably. But codes can actually take control of this randomness and make it predictable and measurable. I’m excited about what programmers can do to create ‘rational’ artworks.
