in dynamic existence

15 haiku + generative symmetries

one moment — one place

influences the next one

all these breaths are linked

reflections exist

ebb and flow — cycles of life

a tide — rise — fall — rise

and then there is this

at your center — trilogy

birth — life — death — of time

and this awareness

of a structure — beyond you

beautiful chaos

you — an energy

infinite and yet finite

always changing state

for this one vessel

is ephemeral — changing

each cell — atom — new

each time you breathe in

is an opportunity

to rejoice — in life

each day you arise

can become a moment of

utter awareness

and each moment — here

is precious — a gift of time

to notice — to sense

to take this world in

and to make it part of you —

interconnected

as this world takes in

this galaxy — universe

emerging oneness

threads of time and space

in dynamic existence

woven together

now — be here — nowhere

be full — utterly empty

of time — void of time

to think of ev’ry

ancient atom — condition

that led to right now

just breathe in the dust

of stars — and realize just how

amazing this is

Each of these images was created with code. You can play below. The images slowly expose (like a photo) and you can decide when to save them (by pressing a key). Full screen is best — on desktop. You may want to change code (</>) and make it your own.

In these sketches, each point is an input to the next point — they all depend on their ancestors’ existence. They are rotated around a random number of lines to create meditative rotational symmetries. This dynamic system is a dynamic existence. There is this single initial condition that leads to utter beauty.
