    I need me some circles

    I'll offer all the credits on my account (30000), if you even care (I don't think this will be that hard or time consuming), to make me/find me/tell me how to make an image 8&1/2 x 11 inches (a piece of paper) that is of black and white circles, getting smaller and smaller as they get closer to the center. They will cover the entire page.

    Concept:


    I need this in the next, like, 10 hours. If possible.

    Thanks!


    On another note. What is the type of art/whatever called when you fill a determined space with circles starting with the biggest you can possibly fit in the space?

      It's called fractal art. Apophysis is one of the more popular programs out there for that kind of stuff.

          Any ideas on how to achieve what I want in Apophysis? I've had it on my computer for forever.

          EDIT: I just opened it. SO, so lost.

          EDITT: The tutorials on the Apophysis page are also making me lost.

              I think they're called Doyle Spirals. I don't know how to create them but those links could help you :

                      Nah, keep them, in case you have another last-minute homework. :P

                          Your concept image is off, start in the middle of your page, make one large circle to start that touches all 4 edges of your page. Paint this one black, next fit 4 circles into the corners without any lines crossing through one another, leave these ones white, and rinse and repeat alternating black and white.

                          If this is for an art class this should likely suffice I imagine, but if it's something technical, then you prolly would have been provided with a program to use I would imagine, so I imagine this is something artistic

                          Edit: Fixated on the 2nd half "On another note" disregard this since it's the opposite o-o

                              Haha, Its honestly just the title page. It's not super important I just didn't want to use a weird apophysis render. Plus the circles are actually relevant to what the project is. And UF, its for language arts. It has no worth in my project. The concept image was the size of a credit card and I spent all of 10 seconds on it.

                                  Having pondered the concept over I cant even figure out where you would start, a theoritically atom sized circle in the middle, or the ending largest circle D=

                                      And that's why it's relevant to my project. *See "A Talk With God" in the Lit forum.

                                          Wow that circle packing proof is pretty cool.

                                          Had a math competition problem like that once, wish I had seen that link earlier! I was never good at making elegant geometric proofs, reading more stuff like that one probably would have helped a lot.
                                          Thanks for the cool read noname219
