The "chaos game" is best know for picking a random point inside a triangle, then picking a random vertex and moving halfway to it, creating a Serpinski fractal. Here I allow >1 vertex to be chosen from a polygon and the movement is the average of all those selections. I also turn the polygon into a fractal and allow all the vertices to be possibly chosen. At lower vertex sampling the image is still highly geometric, but as more vertices are sampled it becomes more cellular or organic.

Back to simplicity, two similar works

Was this animation generated using some kind of software? Or was it created in some other way?
