Catenary Kitties Вђ“ Fractal Kitty Вђ“: Azmath

"Catenary Kitties" is a digital art and coding project created by , the artist behind the math-art blog Fractal Kitty . The project combines hand-drawn illustrations with generative code to explore the beauty of mathematical curves. Project Origins and Context

: The project was originally developed for "Genuary," an annual generative art month where artists create daily works based on specific prompts. Catenary Kitties – Fractal Kitty – AZMATH

: Pressing the "p" key on the keyboard triggers motion within the sketch. "Catenary Kitties" is a digital art and coding

: The Catenary Kitties code page allows users to interact with the artwork: : Pressing the "p" key on the keyboard

: Clicking on the work randomizes the specific "kitties" displayed.

: Catenary Kitties was specifically created for the "Architecture" prompt. Wood chose to interpret architecture through the lens of the catenary curve —the natural shape a hanging chain or cable takes under its own weight, which is often used in arched architecture like the Gateway Arch . Artistic and Technical Details

: The "kitties" themselves were hand-drawn using Adobe Fresco , while the environment and curve-based layout were built using p5.js , a JavaScript library for creative coding.
