Exploring the generation of complexity from simplicity. Electrom. 2015

An abstract moving image artwork in which multiple copies of a single shape move and interact using simple computer algorithms, resulting in the generation of complex shapes.

This work is from a series of works exploring the theme of the generation of complexity from simplicity. The original motivation behind the series was to attempt to depict in metaphorical form the way in which our complex universe is formed through the interaction of incredibly simple forces.
