This piece is a second iteration because I reworked it from circles into triangles. Despite the first piece not having actual spirals in it, it was picked up as having a feel of the New Zealand Kōru motif. Reworking with triangles was a good move from that respect, as it keeps me significantly away from any perception of cultural appropriation but also it was a really good exercise to get me acquainted further with this approach to using basic shapes and connecting bezier curves.
I like the harmonies in the movements here, and having some straight lines among the curves was a satisfying balance of shapes, allowing for lot of meditation and reflection on the fundamentals of geometry. Beyond that, the stylistic approach here has opened up two new lines of investigation that are quite deep - One is the use of thick strokes (it's gonna get thicker) and the other is some discoveries in the AfterEffects local shape settings, which is an underused area of the program if the results I've seen with your motion graphics moves of today are to be the measure.
Today I completed CONNTECT=D #3, which will close this trilogy. In using squares, it's a departure in its structure (obviously), but it also runs three times the length of these two, to accommodate the 'travelling' of its elements.
