Harm van den Dorpel: Senescenence presents generative animations and plotter drawings based on cellular automata similar to Conway’s Game of Life. Using simple rule-based systems, the works produce complex, evolving patterns where forms continually emerge, transform, and disappear. Drawing on references from weaving, pixel graphics, sacred geometry, and historical ornament, the project reflects on algorithmic systems, technological evolution, and the fleeting nature of structure and form.
