Mosumi – Metaphorical
Am enjoying the work at metaphorical, a repository of reactive and pattern orientated ‘computational enchantments’. The Form section contains some interesting interactive pattern/illusion works. Discs 1, 2 and 3 approximate the visual interference and disturbance patterns often encountered in traditional optical illusions through interactivity. Other colour/shape modulations such as Squares 1 and 2 and Wave remind us of the subtle geometries of Vasarely and Riley. Elsewhere in the Nature sections we find some consummate programmatic dealings with l-systems, some generative snowflakes and the Garden of Eichstätt, a meeting of a 17th century botanical book with some present-day computational botany. Explore the whole site!
