The Dragon Curve fractal is created by repeatedly folding a strip of paper in half, then unfolding it to form a curve. In this challenge, I attempt to code an animation of the Dragon Curve forming with p5.js in JavaScript.
All aboard as I attempt to simulate the artistic process of paper marbling. The algorithm is based on the paper 'Mathematical Marbling' by S. Lu, A. Jaffer, X. Jin, H. Zhao, and X. Mao. The code is written in JavaScript using the p5.js library.
In this video, I follow Mike Ash’s guide to Fluid Simulation and port Jos Stam’s "Real-Time Fluid Dynamics for Games" algorithm and code in Processing (Java).
