I first became interested in using algorithms to draw back in high school and college in the early 1980's (that's me with my wall-mounted plotter project at MIT). The tech back then was still primitive, so instead of pursuing the (then practically unheard of) path of "digital artist", I wound up gravitating toward work as a software developer, just in time for the birth of the Internet. Forty years (feels like an entire lifetime) later, I'm at long last expanding on my early visual discoveries with a hand-crafted algorithmic drawing tool I call Multipolar. Each Multipolar image is defined by a small set of parameters controlling a simple, but surprisingly fertile, drawing algorithm. With Multipolar, I explore worlds of color, symmetry, shape, and interference patterns, governed by mathematical sequences — and my mission is to share the most beautiful encounters with you!
