It’s mathober! I will be updating this page with my sketches (in procreate and code for this year.

Procreate sketches:

(I may come back and do more than 9 later):

a moon with three ravens flying with wings spread almost in a straight line tangent to the moon making almost a triangle. there is cloudy haze around the moon with stars and a dark teal hue in the sky where the cloud meets.
a raven flying from the moon with a dark background - barely visible in the dark with an inverted color raven and moon rotate 180 with a background as a light peach.
A crow sits upon a cliff dangling a moon in the darkness from a thread of light. the moons light glows illuminating some of what is shadowed.
A crow touches the moon with its beak whilst standing upon a stacki of stones. The moon has a modular form shaded on it in overlay. A cloud of light in the darkness surrounds the moon along with stars in this nighttime scene.
A raven sits on a large stack of stones arranged to represent the integer partition of 4 in the moonlight. 3 other piles count down 3,2,1 to the left. There are gaps in the stone stacks and stars in the scene.
Three ravens flying around the moon with beaks at the vertices of a constellation triangle. The triangle vertices and 9-points forming a circle are stars. Lines are drawn to show altitudes and midpoint bisector intersections. It is a night scene with the moon inside the circle formed from the geometric construction.
Ten ravens fly around a moon holding strands of whit thread that make a graph that is flexible. They are the vertices and the threads are the edges. There are stars and clouds around the moon. The ravens are mostly silhouettes with some highlights - all in the same flight form.
a moon spirals in the upper right as a raven flies away - a silhouette in the moonlight. there are eddies in the clouds around the moon and stars.
an ocean wave on the right curves and crests in the moonlight and a raven flows perpendicular to it's pull towards the moon. stars are found in sea and sky with mist coming from the moon and the wave.

P5js sketches:

The code is on my codepen collection here.

blueprint of a triangle with small circles rolling on the inside and a larger inscribed circle with tangents hugging a smaller circle. drafting lines shown for triangle construction.
A circle with multiple inverted circles coming from it reflected over the y-axis. The image is white on a blueprint design.
a blue print design with charges on an electromagnetic field
lines drawn with various slopes on a blueprint giving an almost web appearance
lines and different slopes creating an almost emboridered look on a blueprint design.
Integer partitions from 1 to 5 are shown connected at corners with one ant the top and branching out. The sketch is a blueprint design.
a trangle that changes slowly with a nine-point circle moving with it. Points are shown (midpoint, altitude foot, and midpoint with the vertex and orthocenter, and circle center). Blueprint design with drawing lines in a ligher weight.
a graph on bluepring that is flexing with dots down it's flexed diagonal
three twisted spheres on a blueprint design close together almost like trillium

Mathober 2024

Mathober is just around the corner, and I can’t wait to see everyone’s creative take on this year’s prompts! If you’ve never participated before, now’s the perfect time to jump in! The goal of Mathober is simple: have fun, learn, grow, and play with the prompts. No pressure! There are no rules – par

randomness – a generative zine

randomness – a generative zine

I coded a generative zine to bring to XOXO 2024. It is different every time it loads with a sampling of p5.js sketches. Each zine has hundreds of thousands to millions of generated shapes and points using random numbers. The github is here (the code is slow to run and painful to read). If you […]

Curve

I made Curve, a coloring book, to bring to XOXO 2024 this week. If you’d like to print/play: See the Pen Curve Zine by Sophia (fractal kitty) (she/her) (@fractalkitty) on CodePen.

SumFib

After playing simple yet addictive games like Threes and 2048, I wondered how the gameplay mechanics would translate using Fibonacci numbers, which introduce a unique twist. I wrote a prototype in p5js. You can swipe on mobile or use arrows/WASD on desktop. I did this in about a day and unit tested

Genuary 2024

This year’s Genuary code is here (I will update as I go through the prompts). My codepen gallery is here. I am hoping to play with symmetry the entire month. Day-31 – generative music (this runs slow on mobile and some machines) Day-30 – shaders Day-29 – Signed Distance Functions (if we keep trying
