I’ve been trying to wrap my head around the idea of time these past couple of weeks, but the topic is so complex that my mind wonders in multiple directions, and I can’t seem to focus on one particular aspect. So I thought it would be interesting to explore this confusion in my first sketch. I studied something that takes seconds to complete and something that takes billions of years.
Sketch 1- food coloring dripped into warm water and photographed at three frames a second for 40 seconds.
Sketch 1A – P5JS sketch of a solar system spiraling; the background is a single frame from sketch 1. When I zoomed in to the individual frames, it reminded me of the milky way, which led me here.
