sierpinski square

Created by Jenny Lin at the 2023 Textiles Jam, this operation implements an algorithm originally described by Sierpinski which subdivides a square into a cascading sequence of smaller and smaller rectangles.

Parameters​

  • size: the number of ends and pics to make the square containing the structure.
  • recursion depth: the number of times to subdivide the space into smaller rectangles.
  • facing: toggles between a weft and warp facing structure.

Application​

No established use but an interesting pay of composing a base structure based on mathematical functions.
