Maps

Digital Maps

A topographic map of Mt. Marcy in the Adirondacks.

3D Maps

Plotter Drawings

Drawn with an AxiDraw V3 pen plotter.

A map of the major rivers of America, drawn by a pen plotter. A roadmap of Boston, drawn by a pen plotter.


Generative

Have a Tree

Geometric patterns made by growing lines at various angles and decay rates. Play with the system for yourself at this link!

Clear Directions: A geometric pattern in the shape of arrows City Streets: A geometric pattern in the shape of squares Treeangle: A geometric pattern in the shape of a tree Going Somewhere: A geometric pattern in the shape of hexagons A geometric pattern in the shape of curved lines

Curves

Small multiples of curves generated from a higly randomized geometric pattern.
