Continuum is the culmination of many generative art experiments I have run throughout 2022. It relies heavily on the "random walks through color and space" techniques I have been working with, but also introduces other elements related to 2D and 3D rotation, framing and grains. This article provides my notes and thoughts related to its creation and its traits.

Random walks are a significant area of study within mathematics, and various other scientific fields. They are used to model how particles travel, how stock prices move, how genetic drift occurs along with countless other applications. It could even be argued that random walks are a simplistic description of the chaotic nature of the universe. I have been interested in probabilities and statistics since an early age, and find the nature of random walks to be extremely interesting. More recently, I have become aware of how extensively I have been using random walks within my creative processes. This article is an overview of how I have used random walks of particles, shapes and colors in my generative art.
