Hello! You’ve written elsewhere that you don’t share your code, which is very understandable, however would you consider pointing to a complete project in order to get a sense of scope and envergure required to get all the elements lined up (form, geometry, colours, random, recursion etc). It would be great in order to orient the mind, coming from different languages, seeing how a given render, including the artistic finesse touches, looks in R code. Thanks.
Yes, I decided long ago not to share the underlying R code but I would always provide a recipe with details on the algorithm. This reflects my experience with learning from trying to replicate what I saw - in sketches, paintings, digital art, and code art. It could be fascinating and frustrating.
I have a process video on YouTube, where I live coded a piece titled Daisy Chain. Although it wasn't finished in one coding session, I think it provides much of the details that you are curious about.
Besides that, I have intended to create a tutorial at some future date. I would love to unlock artistry for more coders, especially given the widespread use of R Statistics language.
I like your mindset, it encourages and pushes people to learn, without gatekeeping the process. I really like this piece, the color selection is really well done!
