Tree Studies using Random Engines

A while ago I took Joshua Davis' Advanced Actionscripting class at the School of Visual Arts. Admittedly a lot of what we learned was over my head and I didn't see any practical application for much of it.

Currently working on my Tree series I stumbled across the idea to use random placement and color engines in order to arrive at layouts. These are the result of some of my studies. I plan on combining engines to create one that will allow for randomness in both placement and color at the same time.

The piece on the left uses a random placement engine in which a Flash component effects selected movieclips. The middle and right hand pieces simply use a random color generator.
