Matej Andraž Vogrincic created the installation “When on a Winter’s Night a Traveller” at the Melbourne GPO for the 2005 L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival. The installation was composed of one thousand umbrellas suspended over the atrium of the GPO. At various times a cloud of mist would form over the umbrellas, obscuring the far side of the building.
If you roll a circle inside one 3 times its size, it will actually trace out a 4 pointed star shape called an Astroid (this shape is traced out in the animation in orange). But what if inside the smaller circle, there is an even smaller one tracing out a smaller Astroid? This animation shows the intricate shape that is generated by adding the effects of all the Astroids. [code] [also]
