Goldsworthy inspired algorithmic art

I watched this documentary about Andy Goldsworthy today and was inspired to create the following in happyfuncoding.com

Found art - child's game map

I found this awesome playful game map laying carefully folded up in the park this morning. No doubt left by one of the neighborhood children, a game designer at heart. Game industry friends -- give this kid a job before school beats this wonderful playful world out of him/her! :-)

New paintings by Heather Jarry

I commissioned a set of watercolors from Heather Jarry, a friend I've known since 6th grade. I adore Heather and her work and wanted to fill my house with her playful, colorful images. A few months ago we went down to the UT life science's library and I showed her a bunch of images that inspired me ranging from the research plates of the 19th century expedition of HMS Challenger to the molecular renderings of David Goodsell. I'm thrilled with the results. Be sure to click through on these images and see the details. Now I just have to figure out where I'm hanging all this new artwork!
