Monsters

For Tom De Smedt: approximately a year ago (thats eons ago in internet-time) you stumbled across my then website, which I at the time had pretty much abandoned (looks like I might start keeping it up again -we'll see).

Anyway, you left a comment on a post of some nodebox code asking to use it in the gallery. I'm sorry I never even noticed (again, I was faltering in keeping my site up at the time). I just wanted to let you know this way that you are more than welcome to use it anyway you like. For the interest of others, here's the code

from math import sin,cos,sqrt,pi
var("POSX",NUMBER,0,-200,200)
var("POSY",NUMBER,0,-200,200)
var("ROTATION",NUMBER,0,0,360)
var("FILL",BOOLEAN,False)
var("SIZE",NUMBER,200,10,1000)
var("TURNLEFT",NUMBER,60,0,180)
var("TURNRIGHT",NUMBER,60,0,180)
var("RECURSION",NUMBER,5,1,8)
N=int(RECURSION)
if not FILL: nofill()
x,y,a = SIZE+POSX,SIZE+POSY,ROTATION*pi/180
dx,dy,dal,dar = SIZE/float(2**N), 0, (TURNLEFT)*pi/180, (TURNRIGHT)*pi/180
l = dx
L,R,A,B = -1, -2, -3, -4 
S=[A,N]
stroke(0,0,0,1)
autoclosepath(False)
beginpath(x,y)
while len(S)>0:
    N = S.pop()
    if N>0:
        M=N-1
        F=S.pop()
        if F==A: S+=[B,M,L,A,M,L,B,M]
        else: S+=[A,M,R,B,M,R,A,M]
        continue
    if N==L:
        a -= dal
        dx = l*cos(a)
        dy = l*sin(a)
        continue
    if N==R:
        a += dar
        dx = l*cos(a)
        dy = l*sin(a)
        continue
    S.pop()
    x += dx
    y += dy
    lineto(x,y)
endpath()

Hi Zach, been a while!
Thanks for sharing the script, still produces very nice results.
