concept

The "POP3" project is a generative tiling experiment that explores the mid-century pop art movement, through the evolutionary lens of the earlier neoplastic movement of architecture and design. Through a subset of rules, each tile generation is unique and limited to 99 primary tiles. The rules which guide each tile is based on a base set of '3'. 
 

3 bubble colors - 3 bubble sizes - 3(2) bubble locations - 3(3) arrays - 3 rays

((3*3)² + ((3*3) + (3*3))) = #POP3

​

Generative Ruleset

Each tile has the following ruleset which guides its potential creation

​

canvas size: max 800 x 800px

Square Array: <9

Subset distribution within array: 90 degree rotation of rays 1/4 (25%)

Bubbles:
         Location probability: ray connection/ray center 1/6 (16.7%)
         Bubble appearance probability: 40%
         Bubble size: 1/3r, 2/3r, 3/3r (33.34%)
         Bubble color:
                hex#0d7adb (33.34%)
                hex#edcb13 (33.34%)
                hex#f5390a (33.34%)
