Strata of Starlings

Starlings come together in groups of up to thousands of birds for the protection of numbers. These flocks form spellbinding, undulating masses known as murmurations, where the movement of individual starlings sends waves spreading from neighbor to neighbor through the group. One bird’s effort to dodge a hawk triggers a giant, spreading ripple in the flock.

To capture the flowing nature of the murmuration, photographer and scientist Kathryn Cooper layers multiple images of the starlings atop one another. The birds themselves become pathlines marking the murmuration’s motion. The final images are surprisingly varied in form. Some flocks resemble a downpour of rain; others the dangling branches of a tree. (Image credit: K. Cooper; via Colossal)

Genuary 2024 Day 19: "Flocking"

Instead of an animation of 'birds' flying in flocking patterns, I'm going for another use of the word "flocking". I'm starting with the process of producing fake textile with 'flocking', which involves adding small particles to a surface to mimic velvet or other fine textiles.

Some more images and thoughts are now posted: patreon.com/posts/genuary-2024
