Dani Delgado – Looking Outwards 09

A sample of one of the generated color splotches

For this Looking Outwards, I looked to Eunice Choe’s week 6 post on Matt Deslauriers‘s randomly generated line work called Color Wander (2016).  This artwork generates a new composition of lines randomly with every click, expressing unique patterns and color palettes.

I agree with Eunice that this work is very pleasing since the growing abstractions are not overwhelming  or large to the point of them being uncomfortable. However, I would add that he way he used  Simplex noise to make the objects move is arguably the most pleasing part of this work. There is something so wonderful about the way that you never know what line or color will appear next, what direction or form it will take, or at what speed it complete those two actions at. It is as if someone is painting on your computer screen and it is simply mesmerizing to watch.
