This tapestry was designed using a self-organizing algorithm I discovered some time ago. At the top, the tapestry starts with a line of random black and white pixels. As the algorithm progresses downward (not unlike Wolfram’s elementary cellular automata) the design starts to organize itself into horizontal lines. In its digital form, we would call these horizontal lines orderly. As a tapestry, however, this self-organized order causes the fabric to unravel toward the bottom.
