RD Texture Buttons
The computer graphics image "RD Texture Button" by Andrew Witkin and Michael Kass is a milestone in the esthetics of technology. A scientific problem has been rendered with technological means creating such wonderful structures that they were put together into a collage-like image.
'RD Texture Buttons' is a collage of patterns that were created by using computers to simulate a process called reaction-diffusion in which several chemical or biological substances compete for dominance according to simple local rules. The rules govern the formation and decay of each chemical and the way they spread out. This strictly local process can give rise to a surprisingly rich set of global patterns.
