After scratching my head about smooth continuous bezier curves, I remember to an old blog post from Marius (thanks delicious.com/eskimoblood/bezier)
Kiwi, also known as the Chineese Gooseberry, contains one-and-a-half times the daily amount of vitamin C and contains just slightly less potassium than that of a banana. The fruit gets its name from the kiwi — a brown flightless bird and New Zealand’s national symbol.
“What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we cant decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. There is no free will. There are no variables. There is only the inevitable.” --- Chuck Palahniuk
This texture idea came from browsing in the B&H photo catalog. Its supposed to resemble one of their gobos, or patterned light filtering screens, which, as the catalog says, produces a dappled light effect such as the sun through leaves.
My intention here is that this may be used as a projection pattern on a light in 3d rendering software. This particular version also simulates the look of overlapping lights through similar dappled gobos.
Some seamless versions included in this upload, this is not one of them.
I built a simple packing algorithm built on the golden ration "sunflower spiral". New additions to the spiral arrive at the center and the other particles move to the nearest available packing point. The paths in these images show the 'rivers' that these particles flow down to get to the next available spot.
There's absolutely no randomness in here at all, so it was interesting to see the abstract patterns emerge.
Math!
I got my pattern finished and published! I hope you will check it out.
