Bubble Fields

I had been doing some hand drawn bubble fields and converting them to vector/plotting them for years. There was obviously something to the process of individually drawing each circle over weeks or months that make them a very different kind of piece.

I had been resistant to doing these in code, but I recently decided to explore that tension and try using Claude for doing generative approaches. At its core it’s pretty basic circle packing but I’m able to get a lot of variation on each one.

Still adding a lot of features to try and get some ordered chaos going on and these are some first results.

Witnessed reckless police driving at 5th ave and 17th this afternoon

Submitting a complaint about this via CCRB felt like it was going into a hole - curious if anyone knows if there is another way to report this. 311 directed me to 911 and then to an automated line and a web form (which I did submit).

At about 3:00pm on Saturday I saw a police car going the wrong way down 5th Ave almost run into a bicyclist trying to stop him, and then the cyclist rounded 17th down the wrong way and the police turned quickly too, the wrong way (by Bagel factory). If someone had been crossing the street at the time, it would have been bad news. Lights and siren weren’t even on, just quietly driving like a maniac.

Police car was #4468 but I couldn’t get much more at the time, just a random picture of the car on the wrong way street.

Also when the car stopped to cyclist and pulled over, I didn’t see him rush out and cuff the bicyclist. Definitely didn’t seem urgent or dangerous enough to endanger someone who could have been coming up or crossing the street.

If the band doesn’t come to every FH ticket holder’s NYC apartment and play digital ash, I’ll be devastated

And they better cook dinner afterwards! Key Lime Tree Pie for desert! And do the dishes!
