Escapism #3

es·cap·ism — The tendency to seek distraction and relief by seeking entertainment and engaging in fantasy.

The artwork shows a series of lightly outlined circles that overlap and densely flow in waves that crash into their reflections in waves.
The circles oscillate together to create a beautiful rhythm of lines and colors.
This collaboration project between generative artists Kenny Vaden (Charleston, SC) x Freeimp (San Francisco, CA) combines their unique artistic styles to establish a mesmerizing interactive experience.
Unique outputs are generated with each iteration through variations in circle color gradients, brightness, and density in addition to subtler characteristics.

Each output can be viewed in an animated or still mode, with control keys that give the artwork an interactive element in live mode:
