Computational Drawings, David Lu

David Lu makes complex algorithms to create drawings. His software whilst intelligent is not autonomous and requires outside human interpretation or stimulus. In this case and currently he uses a mouse or pen to create the input for his drawings.

David's drawings are incredibly complex, because of the nature of the algorithms. This complexity manifest its self in the incredible intricacy of the drawings. These algorithms utilise the fractal geometry of Benoît Mandelbrot, to create simplistic, repetitive patterns which are beautiful in their tessellation.

This is a short generative animation created for Lumen arts Leeds in 2008.Showcasing some of David Lu's Algorithms.
