Heres a picture from my first run of the new brain neuron code.

The lines are drawn randomly, turning and splitting at random.

Screen8115733

I like the way it draws the lines, but the overall end result feels a little static and one dimentional. Since I want to build color up in areas I'm going to play around with strokeWeight and Opacity and see what happens, hopefully to get that brain neuron feel I am going for.

I also like the almost bird nest or roots entwining look that this code produces.

I have been looking at trying to replicate images such as these:

These brain neuron pictures are quite amazing to look at. I like the way color builds ups in small clustered areas. The other great thing about these is the way that random elements can be used to create the picture. Having lines move around the page, curving randomly and building up color in the process I should be able to create similar images for the project.
