WASHOUGAL-BASED STARTUP AIMS TO CREATE A NEW CATEGORY OF MATH-ART SOFTWARE

Connecting With a Virtual Art Community
Although MathPaint was only just released the app has already gained a following online on social media. MathPaint creator Christopher Corbell regularly posts images created with the program on Instagram and other channels. Digital art made with MathPaint has earned follows and “likes” from near and far.
“The images made with MathPaint have gained follows and likes from France, Brazil, Japan, Iran and other places around the world. At this time when we’re all isolated by the pandemic it’s really meaningful to see how art can connect us. There’s a virtual community around hashtags like #generative and #creativecode. Mathematical art has a kind of beauty, like music, which transcends cultures. Its visual forms reflect something in that’s in all of us, in our sense of harmony and our wonder at complexity. Anyone can appreciate these designs even if they don’t regularly do mathematics. That’s really what made me want to create MathPaint – it’s a program powered by math but it isn’t for doing math; it’s for making art. I think this kind of program might be really useful in education as well. It can give students a way to explore mathematics as a creative activity, motivated by wonder or playfulness.”
