I'm Mandy Brigwell.
Let x=x.
Let x=x.
I make art: electronic, generative, periodic, repetitive, stochastic.
The prompt for Genuary 24 is 'Geometric art', and we are instructed to 'pick either a circle, rectangle, or triangle and use only that geometric shape'. A challenge, I thought, as my first inclination was towards stark lines, bold outlines, and clear delineation. How can I take this in a more organic direction? I thought back to some work on particle systems, moving towards twisted, sprouting, tree-like shapes. What if each particle was only a single geometric form: proof, therefore, that geometric need not mean inorganic. As Benoit put it, 'Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles', and yet here, these beautiful, blossom-laden trees are exactly that: circles, triangles, or rectangles.
Blossom was a free mint in an edition of 192, available to view, and possibly buy, here. You can find out more about the process of creating Blossom here.

Relaxation and Focus with Mathematical Art
This generative artwork was created using a blend of mathematical principles and creative coding. At its core, the design is based on the symmetry and beauty of hexagonal patterns, often found in nature and a visual representation of balance and harmony. By creating these geometric forms, we can encourage a state of mindfulness—focused and present—while appreciating the connection between art and mathematics.

Five parameters, and two hundred thousand points
Cs-55 (Tears in Rain)
A canvas is split into regions, defined by a point and an angle. Across this canvas, random points are chosen, assigned values according to the number of regions in which they reside. Messy, splattered points are thrust into the void, forming a chaotic starfield of colourful beauty. And there, overlaid in scratchy, blur-smeared tracks, are the c-beams: atoms of Caesium-55 accelerated to near-light speeds, or so I'm told.
The Elegant Plane
A spiritual successor to The Elegant Void, eschewing circular motion for the limitless extent of a Euclidean plane, and the intricate foldings of Truchet tiling systems.
