Using the computer to create random moiré patterns. From 2010.

Draws four canvases with reflective symmetry, in one color, continuously. From 2012.

Draws four canvases with reflective symmetry, in black and white, continuously.

Draws four canvases with reflective symmetry, in four random colors, continuously. From 2012.

Here is some information about how the Reflective Symmetry Looper works.

Another random number art program based on the Reflective Symmetry Looper.

A script that randomly joins pipe fittings.

A larger version of my script that randomly joins pipe fittings, with a slightly different algorithm.

This randomly-curved line is the basis for many of my random art programs.

Draws four canvases with rotational symmetry, in one color, continuously. From 2016.

Draws four canvases with rotational symmetry, in black, white, or gray, continuously. From 2016.

Draws four canvases with rotational symmetry, in four colors, continuously. From 2016.

Here is some information about how the Rotational Symmetry Looper works.

Side-by-side comparison of two kinds of symmetry.

I adapted the Fittings script to draw random Roadways.

Using the Random Roadways script to make mazes.

Using the Random Roadways script to build Random Racetracks.

Draws four canvases with vertical bilateral symmetry, in black and white, continuously.

Draws four canvases with horizontal bilateral symmetry, in black and white, continuously.

Draws four canvases with two-fold rotational symmetry, in black and white, continuously.

Large single-canvas Symmetry Looper.

More experiments with the Symmetry Looper.

Like the other symmetry loopers, except the four panels start with the same initial data. The script behind each panel is slightly different, resulting in different drawings.

Symmetry Looper with varying line width.

Another version of this looper, with more changes and improvements.

Create a version where each of the reflected lines is slightly off. Introduce random tiny errors to break the symmetry.

Using the random pipe fittings idea to draw new patterns.

Most basic version of the new random patterns. Makes a random pattern using the connection topologies shown on each tile.

I can add and remove pieces of various connection topologies.

Gained control of the size of images, to increase rows and columns.

Same random tiling concept, same connection topology displayed on each tile, but with a diagonal pattern.

Of course, mix both sets of symbols!

A new set of 16 symbols, same topology, fits all the same routines.

Of course, all three sets of tiles!
