Reaction Diffusion

Reaction-diffusion is a mathematical concept that explores the dynamic interplay between chemical reactions and the diffusion of substances. In the natural world, it gives rise to intricate patterns and structures, from the spots on animal coats to the branching of coral reefs to the shape of the human brain.

In my digital practice, using algorithms, I harness the power of reaction-diffusion to create animations that evolve through the emergence of intricate patterns, reflecting the organic, unfolding and ever-changing beauty of the world. Reaction-diffusion patterns also offer a unique visual journey reminiscent of states of heightened perception and exploration one might encounter through psychedelics.
