Drawings from Small Beginnings
Abstract
Small, densely arranged elements in large numbers are frequently observed phenomena in nature. The author uses an arbitrarily chosen stretch of landscape, a dry riverbed, to formulate artistic intentions and design programmed interpretations of them. From the database of recorded findings the author formulates concepts, which then transform into programs to generate drawings. Many different programs can satisfactorily assist in this task. The conceptual formulation is a crucial step in the procedural chain for attempts in generative art. This chapter experimentally addresses the formulation of a few concepts inspired by nature, aimed at generating line drawings executed on pen-plotters. Unlike in science and engineering, a piece of code does not produce a solution to a problem for concepts in generative art. Generative drawings are produced through a structured process including a sequence of discrete procedural steps, which are: finding and recording; concept and transformation; programming and testing; and drawing and interpretation.
