Starlings in Conversation

Starlings in Conversation is a publication inspired by starling murmurations. Previously thought to be a collaborative effort to confuse predators, it is actually believed to be caused by individual starlings avoiding predators causing others to follow suit. What was once perceived as a collaborative effort to overcome adversity turns out to be an entirely selfish action.

This publication was made using Processing to generate connect-the-dot style images for each page or spread.  The random nature of the images generated aim to replicate the nature of murmurations itself.
