*Arcadia* is a homage to the fridge-worthy landscape art of our youth. Childhood techniques of creating art are re-imagined by the scribbles of a nostalgic, computer-assisted mind.

**Spacebar**: Skip animation and load final image (useful when rendering in high resolutions)
**Up arrow**: Speed scribbles up (default speed is the highest)
**Down arrow**: Slow scribbles down

Arcadia

Those structures suddenly appeared, yet they don't talk to us. Yet.

In this meditative exploration of color and form, iridescent structures emerge from transformations to a flat plane, each emanating an ethereal glow. [Shortcuts] spacebar: pause/resume, q: toggle quality, s: save screenshot. This artwork is responsive and adapts to any screen size. Note: requires a WebGL2-enabled browser.

Hashtractors are a collection of generative renderings of various parametric equations commonly know as "strange attractors". These equations are at the heart of chaos theory; a branch of mathematics focused on the study of dynamical systems that are highly sensitive to initial conditions. A selection of 29 different equations has been made for this collection. Hash data is used as their parameters.

Hashtractors

A geometric composition of a contrasting middle "heart" and an outer "soul". The seed of the symmetrical heart is broken into varying amount of chambers that are calculated to keep its corridors at the exact constant width in order to preserve its rigid mathematical character, yet provide enough space for variety for interesting geometrical patterns. The composition is balanced by a contrasting loose intertwining soul spreading to the borders of the passepartout that, along with the lining, give the piece a feeling of antiqueness. Heart and soul may also contain anomalies and unusual palettes.
