For Genuary 9, a crazy automaton, I'm combining a cellular automaton with the concept of "odious numbers" I learned about during #mathober. Each cell is assigned one of 4 states, and if sum of states of 8 surrounding cells is an odious number, increment the state. Otherwise go back to 0.

Thank you Everyone that participated - It was so inspiring to see all of the are, posts, humor and creations.

It's Halloween! How could I resist a pumpkin for today's #inkyDays drawing?

And that's a wrap for this month of drawing, mostly from Math inspirations. All of this month's drawings and more are now posted for my supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi: https://www.patreon.com/posts/140222503

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Minor". For this one, I went with the vernacular meaning, and added some baby penguins with a 'grown up' penguin for today's #inkyDays drawing.

For My 29th Sketch of Mathober2025 (curated by @fractalkitty) , DanglingSpheres is coded with LiveCodeLab with the 26th Prompt of Amalgamation: A Bunch of Spheres dangling in mid-air.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Hexyl", and I found some pages on it over on Wolfram's math info site: https://mathworld.wolfram.com/HexylCircle.html

I decided to go with an abstraction and playing with a Chemistry inspired pattern.

Here's an in-progress shot.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Recursion". Right away, sorting trees came to mind, and I decided to go with roots instead of branches in terms of a tree.

Here's an in-progress shot. Yes, I filled in the 'tree' recursively while drawing it by hand. I paused while drawing, and took a few in-progress shots.

I've got one more #mathober post - today's prompt is "recursion", and this by-hand construction of the Spiral of Theodorus seems sort of recursive. Just keep adding triangles over and over. The length of the hypotenuses are the square roots of 2 through 17 times the edge length of the smallest triangle.

#mathober day 28: #recursion

"More Bubbles": https://openprocessing.org/sketch/2696244

Okay, to be honest, this is an older sketch and I forgot if there even is a recursion in the code and if no one looks into the code, no one will find out. Most likely there is not.

I'm actually afraid of using recursions since I feel unsure of properly managing the termination conditions – BUT every recursion can be replaced by a loop and this would be my first choice anyway.

#CreativeCoding #genart #processing #mathtober

As a several-days-late contribution for the #Mathober Day 25 prompt ‘Wedge’, I would like to point out a little historical curiosity involving ‘wedge’.

Attached is a detail from an Old Babylonian clay tablet of geometrical problems and a reconstruction of the diagram.

The cuneiform text reads: ‘The square-side is 1 cable. ⟨Inside it⟩ I drew 12 wedges and 4 squares. What are their areas?’ (trans. Robson, ‘Mesopotamian mathematics’, p.95)

The term ‘wedge’ translates the Akkadian ‘santakkum’, which names any figure with three (possibly non-straight) sides. (1 ‘cable’ = approximately 360 metres)

The exact symmetry of the configuration is vital to the problem. Without symmetry, which is suggested by the (necessarily approximate) diagram, but which is not made explicit in the question, the ‘wedges’ could be (e.g.) non-isosceles triangles of different sizes, and the problem would be insoluble.

The problems on the tablet [https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/W_1905-0515-1] comprise various geometric configurations in which symmetry is implicitly required for the solution.
