#genuary2025 Day 27: Something interesting with no randomness or noise or trig

Using a couple of interesting integer sequences to drive colours and sizes

Here Fibonacci (oeis.org A000045) and mirrored Hamming weight (oeis.org A000120)

#xquery #svg #GENUARY #genuary27
A grid off soft natural plant dye colours with deep red, cream, and black ringed circles in them. The circles vary in size and thickness of the rings. The rings use the same colours as the circles. The overall pattern gives an impression of symmetry and regularity, but if you look closer it breaks down, or only holds in certain zones. There is something of a columnar structure where a few columns have a similar limited colour palette. Tan and greenish yellow alternating, yellow with interspersed greys, yellow with regular patterns of grey (shaped like inverse ys), and so on. But again, look closely and the sense of regularity breaks down. Colophon: Formed using the Fibonacci sequence to select colours from the grid boxes in sequence and a mirrored Hamming weight sequence to select the colours of the circles in sequence. Combinations of the two sequences with different moduli drive the circle sizes and rings.
