About
Joel Thorarinson
Conformal Maps is a body of digital artwork built from mathematical transformations that create, repeat, and break symmetry. Complex coordinates move familiar forms toward near-fractal complexity.
My interest in the meeting point between quantitative systems and art grew from doctoral research in non-equilibrium quantum field theory at Dartmouth. The same interest in emergence, structure, and observation continues across my research and professional work.
