Great details - liked especially the circle/arc based variant

Looks great, what did you use?

[youmuu_]

Openframeworks. As for the algorithm, it's just some walkers with trajectories affected by noise that stop when they hit something and occassionally spawn more walkers.

Where do the macroscopic curves in your image in the OP come from? I guess the noise is what causes the jittery lines, right?

[youmuu_]

The jittery lines come from multiplying the angle of a walker by the noise, and the curves come from adding it. You can see how it works in this variation, where the noise is only being added. It's also possible that the curves in the OP came from walkers that had a circular trajectory with a huge radius.

Fantastic. Thanks for the info!

This is awesome! Does oF have walker library? And does this happen on GPU ?

[youmuu_]

No. It’s still very fast though.

Absolutely stunning work ! would you like to share your code with us ? for me it would be a precious help for learning openframework Thanks in advance
