Traveler’s Lamp, Part II
Last week, Joanna Wrzaszczyk and I completed the first version of our dynamic light sculpture, inspired by Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities and the Traveling Salesman Problem.

Traveler’s Lamp
For my primary project in Sculpting Data into Everyday Objects with Esther Cheung and Scott Leinweber, Joanna Wrzaszczyk and I will be creating a lamp to visualize the traveling salesman problem between a set of cities that Italo Calvino described in Invisible Cities.

Primitive Fractal, Part II
For this week's ICM homework, Dan Shiffman asked us to experiment with rule-based animation, motion, and interaction. I decided to expand on the primitive fractal pattern I developed last week and recorded the results in a video. All the code is available on Github.
