Abstract

We present initial examples of a body of textile works compositing visualizations of 1D Second-order Cellular Automata with biomorphic elements. The composited imagery is rendered to digital textile prints, and is further enhanced with freehand quilting. These compositions illuminate the naturalistic elements of the cellular automata, as well as the mechanistic elements of the natural forms.
