life is a (beautiful) mess

when carefully applied, chaos brings things to life.

'life is a (beautiful) mess' was created as i led a certain amount of chaos take control of an animated textile algorithm i'm developing.
as soon as it happened i realized that it was a great representation of our lives.
each line represents one of us and the patterns that appear repeatedly are the situations we live which make us move, feel and be in a certain way.
the image created is the sum of our paths in this life, as they only make sense when we look at them as one.

i hope you find it pleasant to watch this animation, how it develops and grows during aprox 1'30"
there are pieces drawn with the 4 typical school pen colors: black, green, blue and red. also a multicolor and a rare dark mode features.
