Frages is a project in which we are deeply involved, it consists of free research dedicated to graphical exploration with the implementation of new working practice. The project aims to promote generatif and more generally the code practice as a visual creation process. It’s also the occasion for us to extend our coding practice to new fields (print, web creation, mobile, AR) to experience new esthetical value.

In front of the ambivalence of digital practices within the current context, Frages is also an occasion for us to experiment with more reasoned practices. Within this project we pay a particular attention to a free and open-source creation.

Each session of research leads to public restitution through exhibition. This session which take place during August will give place to an exhibition from August 27 to 29.

vec3 repetition = vec3 (sizeForm1.x*2.,0.,sizeForm1.y*2.);

PROTOTYPING TO VISUALIZE 3D SHAPE ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN

VARETY OF PATTERN RESEARCH

BASED ON SIMPLE

DEFORMATION OF GRID SPACE

The deformation of space grid generate a repetition of element here:   a square

for(int i = 0 ; i <repetition ; i++){
position -= gap;
position *= rotation(pi*0.25);
position = abs(position);
}

* 3D shapes combining the repetition

   GRID & SHAPE VISUALISER

To make this transition clearer and not just have the end result. An interactive visualization system has been created so that the user can observe on the fly the generation of the shape according to the pattern. Code steps have also been added to lin them with the operations involved in the process.

The last step to make the process clearer was to make an interactive creation of pattern.
As in this part the user interact in time with the space of the pattern, the final shape was no longer generated as a function of time but as a function of the stages of complexity applied to this space.
He can thus move the square at the origin of the pattern in a space which cuts back on itself as a function of time like a very simple fractal.

PATTERNS DECONSTRUCTION

03_DavidWade-22-22

For a research for patterns we got interested in a specific type of islamic pattern. It’s composed of a dark shape topped by the same light shape which has been rotated 90°. The readability of the initial form and its capacity to always overlap with itself made it an interesting subject for a procedural study.

The first technique used seeks to make shapes with two lines (one straight and one diagonal) in order to try to remake shapes close to the first glyph as some kind of letters.

The second technique uses complete randomness to seek new forms . Depending on the value of each tiles either it is entirely dark, entirely light or cut in half.

3D VISUALISATION

– use of a simple pattern (checkerboard alternating lines going in the opposite direction) to study its passage in three dimensions.

– creation of a three-dimensional checkerboard

– the basic implementation of the pattern with horizontal and vertical lines.

Angle-34

– opposite lines changing orientation according to space are implemented according to the checkerboard
