I’m Frédéric Vayssouze-Faure, a french guy fascinated by wave phenomenons and the vibrating guitar string harmonics theory, therefore inspired by periodic motions in general, and by the purest and smoothest of them in particular : those which are ruled by the sine function.

This blog is a branch of the wavegrower project in which I’m focused on combining minimalism and multitude to create dynamic artworks with more than one level of reading, the first being that every cell constituting them has its own simple periodic motion, meaning regularly looping by spinning or twisting or stretching or balancing or revolving or swinging or shaking or beating or vibrating, in a word : oscillating.

For those who ask for my source code: I’ve post some in OpenProcessing here, they all use the same Ondulator class I’ve built to fit my creative needs (basically making multiple simple cells oscillate the way I want). You may find it heavy (“You wanted a banana but what you got was a gorilla holding the banana and the entire jungle” :), but there’s also an aesthetic intention behind: let all this pieces be particular occurences of a more general pattern, come from the same mold despite their specificities, like brothers.
