Beautiful piece of art on the Abused Media media website. Here is one of the gallery. The artist use Processing and Nodebox, that I just discover.

From Nodebox website:

NodeBox is a Mac OS X application that lets you create 2D visuals (static, animated or interactive) using Python programming code and export them as a PDF or a Quicktime movie. NodeBox is free and well-documented.

Research project for visual representation of complex network. GNOM project. Produce great artwork. From there website:

Network topology has become a paradigmatic field in sciences (as well as mathematics, social sciences and arts) since it studies the way in which many they are organized. The interaction between genes is a specific example of scientific studies where this is demonstrated. The network structure formed by molecular interactions defines functional genetic aspects of great importance. Scientists in biology, genetics and bioinformatics whose fields of research include genetic networks, have to deal with huge amounts of relational information. The management of this information, its visualisation and in general, the way in which scientists relate to it, determines the direction of their research. The information is inert, scientists have to establish a relationship with it, and in that process play role many parameters, some can be controlled and some can even be created.

A small and humble script that generate SVG images like the illustration above. Look at the code and a sample SVG output.
