Transit #17

“Do you realize we’re floating through space?”

• The Flaming Lips

A transit occurs when a planet or moon passes between a star and its observer.

Transit is a study of scale and simplicity, utilizing one of the first things I and many others learned how to code — a circle moving across the screen (shoutout to Daniel Shiffman’s The Coding Train youtube videos!). Using only two circles, these minimalist infinitely-looping transits come in a variety of punchy pop art palettes.

Transit is the fourth instalment in my exploration of minimalist generative art that utilizes only two or three solid colours per output and basic geometric shapes, in this case to create a cohesive collection that reminds us that we’re all just floating through infinite space on a speck of dust together.

An eclipse is a type of transit, so that will have a 10% of happening.
