Matt Pearson’s Generative Art

One of the great new Processing books to come out this year is Matt Pearson’s Generative Art. Pearson has a collection of great Processing sketches at his website AbandonedArt.org. He also blogs at ZenBullets.com

Like a lot of generative artists, Pearson is really fond of skinny lines, and does a lot of sketches that involve layering lots of skinny lines (and curves) on top of each other, to build dense interesting textures. Here’s one of his early sketches, Triptych.
