Combining it all - and celebrating it all: Physics, math, engineering, and code! A collage of code-generated art (no AI!) with a digital drawing - both showing diffraction curves mounted on circles. As if light diffracted by a double slit in the center of the structure would be captured on cylindrical screens.
Code art created with custom JavaScript code using threejs, based on the physics of diffraction and black body radiation.
Drawing created with a digital pen in Procreate, using the tools for circles and straight lines to mimic ruler and compass in a geometrical construction. Traditional axonometry, intended to resemble vintage technical drawings - a main source of inspiration for me!
Elke Stangl (elkement) (she/her) is an Austrian physics PhD working as an engineer. Her mathematical art is borne out of her life-long passion for the theoretical underpinnings of her craft. She is creating virtual three-dimensional structures from mathematical functions – digitally with code or with ruler and compass, using.. Read more…
