Description
The Pattern Distortion series explores the beautiful complexity that can be found in the interference of distorted patterns and noise.

The code used to generate these images has "sources" that generate the basic image data (as an array of values between 0 and 1), "filters" that modify that data, "eases" that adjust the curve of the data, and "blends" that blend the data from two sources together. For Pattern Distortion 08, a "Waves" source has been added that generates cosine waves through the image. This image is the interference of three cosine waves that change in frequency using a natural logarithmic equation.

As always, the image is what you see in it. I do have an interpretation of what it looks like to me, but I'm just the guy who put the math together. Why would my interpretation be more right than yours?
