“Noir Orion” is a sketchbook of 63 drawings generated by an algorithm designed to explore the gradual transformation of a simple shape: the circle. On each page, the algorithm applies a series of geometric operations that evolve the circle into increasingly elaborate configurations. Then, in a reversing motion, the forms simplify until they return to lines evocative of a star. The book’s visual trajectory weaves a connection between pure mathematical abstraction and a cosmic entity.
