Abstract
In this paper, we propose and implement a new method to create generative art using soot of candle that is controlled by a computer. This system is called 'Sootoid'. A Sootoid uses two motions for drawing. One is a movement of a candle that is based on a program, and it has repeatability. The other one is a movement of a flame of a candle that is based on nature phenomena, and it does not have repeatability. Therefore, while the most of generative arts use a random number to make a noise of system; as against Sootoid uses a randomness of natural phenomena of a system to generate a noise.
