Cosmic Jewels

Cosmic Jewels is a study of patterns emerging from thousands of basic geometric shapes. This project is an expansion of my first generative mini series (10 pieces) on tezos - Jewels.

Process:

There are 2 different ways the grid is created. Going towards the middle, either the blocks can get bigger, or bigger and smaller blocks are alternated. The canvas can be split in a variable number of blocks: 17, 21 or 25. In each block, random rectangles, circles and triangles are then drawn with random size, thickness and number of repetitions. The colour palettes are also algorithmic.

Controls:

By default, the rendered resolution is twice the window size.

• Press [1] to change the resolution to 2000px x 2000px
• Press [2] to change the resolution to 4000px x 4000px
• Press [3] to change the resolution to 6000px x 6000px
• Press [4] to change the resolution to 8000px x 8000px
• Press [5] to change the resolution to 10000px x 10000px
• Press [S] or [s] to save a PNG file with the current resolution (be patient with bigger resolutions)
