Artworks based on dividing a rectangle/square into two rectangles, by splitting the larger side in a fixed proportion, and iterating recursively. Colors are computed from the shapes of the parent rectangles. (Procedure similar to
mathstodon.xyz/@DaniLaura/1140 ).
The first two pieces use the inverse of copper ratio (sqrt(5) - 2) and e^(-pi/2) respectively. The other two use the golden ratio, notice in the first how the splitting is more regular albeit not periodic (the colors here are just related to the shape of each rectangle so that it becomes more apparent). The last one was divided more in depth and the borders were not drawn to produce a texture.
