By Hiromasa Fukaji and Junichiro Horikawa “When I looked at ripples on water and cracks in the ground, the annual rings of trees and ridges on mountain ranges, I saw that beautiful shapes created by nature have a certain regularity—in much the same way that a repeated line drawn by an algorithm can become an artwork.” Nature/Code/Drawing is a re-imagining of nature, depicted through the lens of generative art. Showing a vast array of subjects—from rocks and tree stumps, to mountain crests and water—Hiromasa Fukaji takes Junichiro Horikawa's algorithms and brings them into the physical world via the use of a plotter. The result is an expressive collection of artworks where nature and technology intersect. The publication features an augmented reality application, making it possible to watch the generation process behind all of the graphics.
