I incorporate multiple mediums into my work, pushing the boundaries of materials by drawing upon techniques for other materials. Now, I’m exploring what bringing the blockchain to traditional physical media could mean. Please see my Instagram for more details (@clockworkfeathers)

ColorScheme

Square Spiral Tile’o’rama
(2021)
By Clockwork Feathers

There are three main components to this image generator. The first is the square spiral tile generation algorithm, which is a routine based off of cellular automata algorithms, but instead of having it iterate in the second dimension, the routine simulates the second dimension in computed offsets in a one dimensional array. That array then gets rolled up into a square “tile.”

The second component is a probability based tiling routine that takes in a generated tile routine and then fills in a specified percentage of the larger image with randomly rotated input tiles. This routine is called repeatedly with adjusted probabilities for smaller tiles. 

Finally, there is a collection of color pallet generation functions. There are eight formulas for choosing a color pallet for the generated image, and one is chosen at random for each run.
