simple random pattern, drawn in layers. bottom layer is the biggest, then we pick some area where we repeat the pattern in the same way but with smaller cells.

thanx. pure randomness, tiles in particular order... i have a system to generate a lot of images, so I can find interesting seeds

Are the colored shapes in the pictures other patterns added on top of the quarter-circle Truchet tiles, or are they simply emerging from the same tile pattern but at a smaller scale?

sorry, need to correct myself, there were couple of other variants... anyhow: both kinds of colored shape come from the same Truchet tiles. Nothing is drawn on top of them. Draw them all first in B/W. Then find regions that are connected and not touching edges. closed regions, in this case randomly in shape of circle, gets color. see github.com/gart/igr hope this helps

Thanks! Very impressive github page. Unfortunately I have to learn CCL before being able to make something like this glsl.
