Research paper on the impact of viewing fractal patterns on the brain (I don't understand the mathematical bits of it but I understand that it does feel better to be around naturally occuring patterns, bless)
In which Ford struggles so badly to relate to other people that he wonders if he’s really human at all. The more isolated he becomes, the harder it is to reconcile with his own humanity.
could you draw this frog species? its pattern reminds me of paint :) https://www.tumblr.com/herpsandbirds/735993039437414400/splash-backed-poison-frog-adelphobates
In some of the rare times where I create something small and cool, I love sharing it with other people :)
For context, I've been working on a video game and started looking into some loading screens. I got carried away a bit, but I loved the capabilities and parameters I could experiment with here!
Since my game is set in a Mystery Solarpunk world, I was aiming for brighter and lighter color schemes :).
I was surprised with how beautiful all the parameter combinations can be!
Code
So if you want to try it yourself, feel free to check out the following repo:
You will need to download Processing in order to run it. It's a nice open-source sketchbook language built on top of Java to draw some cool visuals :)).
If you end up creating something with it, please tag me so I can see your creations! B)
Also, if you happen to have a GitHub account, I would love it if you could star the repo as well (but no pressure on this!) :))

Reposted from @geometry.in.nature The signature pattern of electricity and vibration are everywhere in nature and in the entire universe. Natural patterns tend to follow the laws of energetic efficiency and thus creates harmonic shapes which fits their purpose and functionality. The patterns in nature seem random but they are always subject to intelligent mechanics and laws of proportion — geometry is an intrisic part of the universal mechanics, and mathematics is the language which describes the structures and processes involved in all dynamics of said mechanics. #geometryinnature #fractalsinnature #sacredgeometry #fractals #fractal #geometry #symmetry #nature #natural #beatiful #amazing #physics #science #quadrivium #patterns #hermeticism #hermeticphilosophy #theoryofchaos #mathematics #math #amazing #photos #photograph https://www.instagram.com/p/ClZ8OBYpfuH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
"When a beautiful soul harmonizes with a beautiful form, and the two are cast in one mould, that will be the fairest of sights to him who has the eye to contemplate the vision."
Made with foil strips of equal length and book screws.
The larger triangle at the center is stable because the outer tinier triangles stabilize it. (The larger triangles have a side length of two foil strips. The smallest triangles ("the building blocks") have a side length of 1 foil strip. The largest triangle is this entire model with side length of 4 foil strips.)
The largest triangle (4foil strips) is stable, because the tiniest (1foil strip) triangles stabilize each other as well as the larger (2foil strips) triangle.
The sierpinski pattern has interesting properties regarding its "stability" I have to admit.
Normally I struggle to make equilateral triangles of side length "2 foil strips" stable enough without adding an inner triangle. This construction (using outer tiny triangles) is a good solution if you want a "larger triangle hole".
The wheel's turning and I can feel xc1 coming back into focus in my brain, and with it the question: what would mechanical terrain look like in the new world? We only ever see organic terrain after Zanza's defeated but I like to think that there's some mechanical terrain somewhere and the Machina haven't just been stranded in a world fundamentally different to their own makeup. So now I'm trying to think of mechanical analgoues to geological processes and let me tell you it's a really cool thought exercise
