SymmArt

Art from symmetric transformations in the spirit of Frank A. Farris. For more about the mathematics in this package, see his book:

Frank A. Farris. "Creating Symmetry: The Artful Mathematics of Wallpaper Patterns" Princeton University Press (2015)

Usage

To experiment with Farris' symmetric functions, run the GUI:

python -m symmart

This starts a dash app on http://localhost:8050/.

There are also a number of jupyter notebooks provided in the examples directory. Notebooks starting with 'Farris XX' attempt to replicate figures from the book (using my own color-wheels).
