You Like Patterns, Yeah?

[indieterminacy]

I felt this may be of interest to some of us here (probably those interested in CLP):

Algorithmic Pattern aims to bring people together who value deep, human curiosity into patterns. We hope this call excites you whether you are exploring patterns in heritage crafts or contemporary algorithmic art.

Humans have always explored algorithmic patterns, as creative, culturally-embedded ways to work beyond our imaginations.

But what is an algorithmic pattern? We invite contributions that focus on one or more of the following aspects:

• Procedures for making, whether notated or passed on through oral culture. These ways of making may be arrived at through playful experimentation, and perhaps reasoned about in terms of geometry, models and representations. Simple procedures (shifting, reversing, etc) in combination can give us complex results.
  

• Material behaviours, in that pattern-making is always a dialogue between a human maker and their material, and a pattern notation is only complete when considered in terms of the material at play.
  

• Pattern-making culture is what brings meaning to the procedures and materials of pattern-making, whether through ritual, sharing, collaboration, decoration, trade, or the collective experience of making (or dancing!) together.
