Chaos - The Movie

My fascination with mathematics and my love of visual arts has led me on a journey to build a link between mathematics and drawing. It has become my mission to express the intrinsic aesthetic value of Mathematics in a purely visual language. I use a number of graphing and geometric plotting techniques to examine the aesthetic characteristics of functions, sequences and series in a visual language. My drawings are an intense accumulation of lines and mark making resulting from my predisposition to counting. These drawings have an inherent repetitiveness similar to knitting, weaving and lace making. Through the years my drawing has become a type of meditation. “Chaos - The Movie“ is a stop-motion animation movie in which I create a line drawing based on Chaos Theory. The drawing - and the movie - were made over a period of six months. Music is an original composition made for the movie by Max Schreier. Meejin Hong did the video editing. Susan Happersett
