I got some really interesting results PSTG-ing a square truncated file at about 1250 dpi. I'll post a series over the next several days. These look very carefully cropped and composed, but no final-stage cropping or other post-manipulation was involved.

 

Basically, I open a truncated file in an old version of PS, crop the black space to square (which for some reason preserves the truncation, keeping the image unstable), open a bunch of other files to fill up the PS cache, and then use Unsharp Mask (lowest settings of 1 - 0.1 - 0) to "freeze" the image. Then save off the ones I like as TIFF.

 

Undo. Repeat. Undo. Repeat.

 

The more you use "undo," the more previously glitched images are saved to cache. So the process yields interesting results only up to a point, when you start to see diminishing returns (i.e. images that are too recursive/entropic and don't differ much from one to the next).

 

Hope this makes sense. LP cover anyone?

Collapsed from the constructed crease pattern. I still haven't had time to look for a recursive folding sequence yet... though honestly, collapsing this took so long that maybe I would have found a sequence if I'd started with that instead! Starting with the largest possible hexagon cut from a 35cm square of duo kami.

There was probably someone taking a picture of me taking a picture of her taking a picture of Georges!

 

Georges Seurat, "La Grande Jatte", 1884, Art Institute of Chicago.

Design by Ben Goldberg. I saw a photo of this from Jorge Jaramillo, who said there is a creasepattern or something available on the designer’s facebook page. I don’t do fb much these days, so I figured it out using Jorge’s photo.

This is a recursive version of Shuzo Fujimoto’s Scissors (CFW 87). I wanted to call it Biohazard Fractal since it resembles the biohazard symbol, but later decided to stay with the name Fujimoto used for his base model.

 

I am not sure whether Fujimoto was aware of the possibility of extending his original CFW 87 design into a fractal. I discovered that a number of his molecules can be fractalized this way (pictures coming up) but the only example of him using such a procedure is the Lucky Star Fractal which is derived from CFW 88 (Hemp Leaf) in a similar manner. Since I was aware of Lucky Star Fractal and it still took me quite a while to realize that the process could be generalized to other molecules, unless I find firm evidence to the contrary, I will assume Fujimoto did not know of the other fractal designs.

 

While Lucky Star Fractal has six-fold symmetry, Scissors has only tri-fold symmetry. This means that each consecutive level of the fractal can be rotated relative to the previous one in two ways rather than one. The model presented here uses consistent rotation on all levels. Another highly symmetric possibility is alternating the direction every other level (pictures coming up). However, the direction for each level is independent, so completely random assignment is possible as well.

 

Since the outermost level of the fractal resembles the base molecule from which it is derived, it shares its properties in that it can be tessellated. Due to the way layers of paper lock together, this molecule is harder to fold than Lucky Star Fractal, especially at deeper levels. Since accessing those deep layers requires opening up the molecule significantly, tessellating it will probably also be quite challenging in practice.

Redo of my original Eternal Scream, using alpha blending in the droste code.

I think that Hajime Komiya's Dahlia is a wonderful model that hasn't been explored enough. Brian K Webb did a nice variation and Andrew Hudson made a recursive version, but apart from that I'm not aware of more models related to it.

 

Having those petals at the center of the model and making them loose enough as to make the dahlia, required a lot more folding that it appears to be

Nebulosus Severine dancing in front of the poster for hir Soul Mending exhibition in SaliMar.

Designed and folded September 2018 from 40 square sheets of European kraft paper.

 

Each unit is folded from one square and each iteration is assembled from 8 units. The units are surprisingly simple to fold with strong locks. It is a fractal design so you can theoretically fold as many iterations as you’d like.

 

This model is essentially an octagonal version of my Interstellar design. The units are very different, but they are both inspired by the geometry of spidrons. Still undecided on the name, but please let me know what you think!

Traffic jams and bunching even for the early starters on the Interstellar Highway. You'd think that with all this 'space' around, traffic would have more freedom but in a region of high density black holes and numerous wormholes navigation routes are tight - not to mention the ever present dangers from pirates.

A Cybernetic Thought

=======================================================

Fractals are recursive energies.

Energy gives physical systems a purpose for existing.

Information enables physical systems to fulfill their purpose by instructing them as to what to do.

I finally finished the model I was working on with Jorge and Diana at Origami Colombia 2011. It's the Dahlia by Hajime Komiya, but I've used the extra paper at the center to create two more levels. A three-level version of this, but with a neater transition and a more realistic center. Here I was able to figure out a recursive folding process, which bears some similarities to both Chris Palmer's decreeping methods, and to Shuzo Fujimoto's Hydrangea.

PoIC is a system that is thinking about itself.

Designed and folded by Michał Kosmulski. This pinwheel displays a fractal pattern with smaller pinwheels embedded inside larger ones, a series which can be continued indefinitely with thin enough paper.

 

By folding back the four largest blades, you can use this model as a modular unit (example here).

I plan some recursive and anamorphic tricks for this animation. But first - study, work, repeat.
