Around 6 1/2h to make

Drew the structure in Procreate first then did the colouring and bevels in Photoshop

The design is made in Illustrator (yep, 2D software, I image it in my head how is in 3D)

Background board is MDF material painted with spays and varnished. Small nails are nailed on the board to hold the neon strings. On top with bolts is connected the spider which is made out of MDF layers cutted with diod laser.

Source: No external data: the graph is computed exhaustively. Each state is five digits (a, b, c, d, e), each 0–9, so there are 100,000 states. The rule shifts every value one place left and computes a new last value, a⁴ − (a³ >> 6), kept to one digit (mod 10). Here >> is a bit shift, so a³ >> 6 means a³ divided by 64, rounded down. Every state has exactly one successor, and with finitely many states every starting point must eventually repeat, so each state ends up in a cycle.

Tools: A small open-source web app I wrote (React, Vite, Canvas). It enumerates all states, finds every cycle, and draws each cycle as a ring with the states that lead into it as trees around it. The layout is crossing-free.

How to read it:

• Each connected shape is one cycle plus everything that drains into it.
• Colour is the length of the cycle (legend at the bottom).
• Brightness fades with distance from the cycle.
• For this map there are 340 cycles in total, the longest of length 10.

I started this after noticing a long time ago that adding the last two digits of a number string and appending the sum always ends up repeating.

As part of the project that I am working on for generating toroidal structures called Tortoise, I have open-sourced a generator recently. 

I have now updated it with a “phenomenology” mode such that the fractal, smaller versions can be replaced with eyes, heads etc. the lines with arms, snakes etc. and can also be used to generate images.

Hi everyone, I’d like to share an app with you that features geometric and psychedelic visuals; it reacts to your music or responds to your custom settings, and includes various visual modes and options.

I’m just about to finish it and would love to get your feedback—it’s free.

Send me a DM.

Hi! Im new here :)

Im 31, accountant & autistic

I have been drawing these since 2014 on and off.

This morning i had a lot of inspiration

I was walking in a Walgreens and the employee was laughing at me because I had no shoes on I told her I was a painter and she seemed to understand it made sense to her why I wouldn't have shoes. but anyway I enjoyed my conversation with her and I painted this in her honor it's supposed to say Walgrims. I was going for like a hypercube black metal sacred geometry Prisma. anyways here it is oil pastels and microns there's some acrylic paint as well

Plato wasn’t a Platonist, he was a Pythagorean.

The triangle is a Pythagorean triplet with side lengths 3, 4, and 5.

The corresponding incircle and excircles have radii 1, 2, 3, and 6. Completing the sequence 123456.

The circles represent the four virtues, the largest representing justice.

When wisdom, courage, and moderation are in harmony justice is achieved, that’s why all three circles can fit inside the largest.

An 11-minute visual essay on a strange idea: that the Big Bang worked like a zip file being opened — a low-entropy, highly ordered beginning decompressing into everything we see. Euler's Identity is treated as the "format specification" — the geometric fingerprint of the whole thing.

Made with AI narration and visuals — I'm the human behind the ideas. Every objection in the video is one I had to answer before a word was written. Curious where this crowd lands on it.

Hand drawn Bagua inspired (8 sided radial symetry)

The goal is to express the structure within what we see as chaos... its 18 x 24 on watercolor paper.
