Research and Thoughts about the Recursion Excursion Project
This project has become an explanation of the process and an archive for those who wish to teach themselves.
If you choose to experiment and explore further, please keep me updated with your efforts.
Projects that act as precursors
---Lines Lines
---ASAP RSVP
Some post-production thoughts:
---Has this become a self-generative work? Can almost anyone create with this simple tool?
---Implications of no original artists hand. (Artware...?) What type of community, who will use it?
---Is this a form of distortion? Instead of creating, it borrows and modifies.
---Animation possible?
---Klein Bottle and concept = worth more research.
---Does the vector option make it any more interesting or enticeing? (Render out to vector PDF function)
---Realization: Interesting farther look back at older projects as a means of seeing progression. (1, 2, 3)
Here are some links that helped to formulate and press the project forward:
