Terraforms by Mathcastles with special guests HEEEEE and Matto
A deep dive into the long-form generative art project Terraforms by Mathcastles that is truly a computer program as the art rather than the algorithm. We are joined by experts HEEEE and Matto to break down a 101 of this masterpiece that will truly need more time to fully grasp. A fantastically impressive project, this is worth your time to learn about even if you don't buy.
