Totems

"Totems are objects that represent a group of people, or concept."

For this piece I combined both programmatic generative concepts with organic marks. I focused previous generative projects on animation and interactivity. With Totems I focused more on creating pleasing and balanced compositions regardless of generated characteristics.

Totems represents my continued search to discover a type of generative work that I find both pleasing to create and collect. One day once I settle on a particular genre or medium of work, these works will be seen as those that contributed to me "finding myself" or "finding my style".

Note that the preview capture requires GPU instancing, so capture may take a couple moments. The rough edges were not rendering without GPU instancing.
