Here's a post of 8 years ago about the D-Day heroics of Canadian Artillery Officer James Doohan (aka Scotty from Star Trek).

I am blogging about art and physics, about 2-4 times a month.
Some blog posts about the evolution of these mathematical artworks!
It started with a warp core explosion - a tower with a spherical-harmonic base:

Then I saw a Balloon Dog Supernova, and seeded Found Poetry from it:

I am currently into freehand technical still lives. Here is a detail of our fire extinguisher - drawn as inverted art:
Originally created with blue colored pencil on pale green paper, using an inverted photo of mine. Finally, I've inverted a photo of the drawing again.

Visualizing spherical-harmonic functions by drawing meshes of contours on them (with custom code).

Then I used the simple functions as building blocks of crazier ones:

The pictures above are photographs of a young Captain James Doohan of the Royal Canadian Artillery. Doohan was in action on D-Day where he served with exceptional courage and distinction during the…
I know, I need to get back to art based on physics! But I am taking a detour! I am collecting ideas and building blocks – art based on mathematics. The function powering the warp core is not …
I have promised to report on my progress with presenting my digital art on canvas. but I had been sidetracked by inverted drawings. So, I created a first – and very modest – descriptive…
Do you see it? Balloon Dog Supernova, code art by elkement 2024.Drawing contour lines on the surfaces that represent spherical harmonic functions. Spherical harmonic functions look like balloon dog…
First, I saw only boring structures. Now I am overwhelmed with choices! It took me a while to find a strategy for harvesting the so-called spherical harmonic functions for art. Spherical harmonics …
