Creating fantastic places and landscapes based on concepts
from astronomy, space science and physics.












This data visualization was created as a class assignment but I wanted to give the data some background. The resulting artifact combines data with storytelling to create an argument that while the Moon appeared to be NASA’s chosen destination early in the space program, Mars quickly became the space agency’s preferred destination and focus […]

The planet ‘breathes’ as the angle of the Sun changes during Earth’s 365-day orbit. Not only do the snow bands move with […]

I’ve always been interested in low-poly art creations. The artform appeals to me and it has always seemed a good candidate for generative art. I could not have imagined in 1994 while programming javascript rollovers for menu items that the model could be turned into a powerful art generation platform. This website follows that […]
