The works based on mathematical formulas employ chance in the form of random numbers generated on a calculator and the principle of self-similarity that was derived from chaos theory. Self-similarity describes a phenomenon found in nature where natural forms exhibit shapes that repeat themselves in ever smaller scales within the structure of the form. I used this principle by generating sets of forms (drawn with CAD software) derived by the formulas and repeated at different scales to provide complex patterns.
