"Estuaries 2" is the second part of my "Estuaries" generative audio-visual series, which can be viewed as a number of standalone works or ultimately as one large, multi-movement composition. Randomly dispersed, spinning forms dialog with grid-based logic to create continual flow and rapid transformations. The “Estuaries” series involves visualizing Nelder-Mead optimization, a process used by mathematicians to find solutions to complex, multi-variable problems that cannot be addressed by solving equations. The music was created with my Nodewebba software, which interlinks pattern generators to create complex emergent behaviours.
