Creator’s name: Sanchtv
Title of work: Foldable Fractal 2.0
Year of creation: 2009<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project by Sanchtv is titled Foldable Fractal 2.0. It is made up of laser-cut pentagons that appear to be folded together to create a “pentagonal dodecahedron”. I admire the repetition of the pattern that moves inwards and continues to decrease in size. This piece reminds me of the drawings of an individual painting a picture of themself, painting a picture of themself and so on, making it appear as though it repeats for infinity. These types of visuals are capable of grabbing the attention of the viewer in a quick and unique manner. The description mentions that this was created through a recursive algorithm. After some research, I learned that it is an algorithm that calls itself using a smaller input to return the result for the current input. From that base definition, I suppose such an algorithm is the cause for the repetition in the design. While I do not know much about the creator, it is apparent that this object was created in a very intentional and methodical manner that utilized an algorithm to create three-dimensional art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
