Conway Tiles

Conway Tiles - Inspired by Math, Pixels, and Play:

This piece, sparked by a conversation with mathematician Christopher Scussel about John Conway's fascinating pinwheel tilings (the first non-periodic tilings with infinitely rotating tiles!), explores tessellations in a playful, pixelated way.

Eight variations of Conway triangles, meticulously crafted from squares, dance across a regular grid, their orientations as free as they are unexpected. A vibrant color scheme adds another layer of whimsy, with each sub-triangle adorned in a random splash from the color wheel. Even the outlines join the fun, randomly choosing between black, white, or simply fading away.

A single keystroke sends this digital kaleidoscope swirling anew, offering a glimpse into the infinite possibilities of tiling and color. As my final creation of 2023, it's a celebration of a year rich in experimentation and, above all, the joy of discovery.
