Prime Triptych

Inspiration struck last night reading about Rune Mields' exploration into patterns in prime numbers. This is a recreation of her 9 panel piece of the Sieve of Eratosthenes. I used JavaScript to generate a ton squares, and then assigned the squares with a prime index a white background.

The left grid is 89x120, the middle is 90x120, and the right is 91x120. Just by shifting the column width, we are able to rotate the orientation of the pattern. Pretty crazy. This was more of an exploration of patterns and algorithms that resulted in (generated) art. Check it out on codepen: http://codepen.io/bcolumbia/full/eBbOMP/
