Wayfinder

Wayfinder is a 2.5d experiment: an infinite extruder that generates an ongoing stack of 2d shapes.

The beginning of this project dates back to the involvement of the artists in a visual exploration undertaken for a previously commissioned project. Their task was to envision futuristic languages and signage systems for a science fiction film. This research laid the foundation for this new long-term project, where the artists retained the concept of layering and reimagined it by developing a new and efficient code.
