Complex Systems Summer School 2018-TShirts
From Santa Fe Institute Events Wiki
Complex Systems Summer School 2018
|
Every year we have a T-shirt design contest where CSSS Students create designs (relevant to the summer school) Please use this space to post your T-shirt design below.
A color will be selected before the summer school begins.
If anybody would like a high-resolution SFI logo, please see JP.
Please submit T-shirt designs here by the afternoon of Monday, 19 June. Voting will be conducted that afternoon
Fractal for scale
Power law scaling of quotes

Back design:

Design ideas:
Front: We collect funny or inspiring quotes in the lectures and found they have a "perfect" power law scaling! :P
Back: What Santa Fe Summer school will do to a horse :D
Designer: Yanchen + Xindi + collective contributors for quotes! :D
Chaosss
Chaos-Order Ambigram, Brain-Mazes that are Lorenz-attractor like
or maybe the brains on the back.

Chaos is a Ladder
Game of Thrones reference for those not immediately aware... apologies for the giant size, but I'm new to wikis - feel free to shrink down. Also, I have very little artistic/graphics skills (more about the ideas), so feel free to reach out if you want to collaborate! -Alex File:T shirt back.jpg File:T shirt front.jpg
Shameless Copy of a (Winning) Design from Last Year
Fractal
The idea is to have a continuous flow below and then a discrete-ish / fractal wave above. Improvement of quality is needed though... leaving design here more as future reference. See pdf for higher quality (have also svg file if that helps)

Idea is to have a countinous flow below the text and then the fractal version above text.
some ideas for how the continous flow and fractal flow could look like

Prickly Pear Cactus Fractal and Chaos Butterfly
Maybe some of you have also ventured out to look for fractals within the flora around the college and seen the prickly pear cactus in bloom! I sketched a design with the prickly pear having a 'chaos' butterfly feeding from one of its flowers. I also sketched a simpler logo for the back of the shirt and thought that it'd be cool to maybe incorporate our country flags inside the outline of the letter 'C' and some cool patterns from New Mexico native arts inside the outline of the three 'S' letters.
Happy to develop these ideas further and include a funnier slogan (maybe write the current one in logical symbols) or sketch another cactus if you'd prefer a different one! Also, please consider these as sketches - the final images would look more sleek and less like a design on a toddler clothes :)
A Large Porous Umbrella
I love Complexity
This image could go on the back of the t-shirt. Each group could also have its own preferred symbol up front, to capture the essence of the group and to nurture some group identification. The fonts could be changed, obviously.

SFI in the brain
What is the CSSS, but the people? ***WINNER***
This shirt design draws from the Shakespeare quote cited in Geoffrey West's talk: "What is the city, but the people?" and highlights those who make up our amazing 2018 CSSS family.
On the front of the shirt, each node in the network is a 2018 CSSS student connected not only to the SFI, but also to other students by common place of origin (country or US state).
The back of the shirt has all the names of the students, staff, and speakers (along with a hidden message!) written on the powerful monolithic chalkboard new to the SFI campus. This ensures, to extend David Krakauer's guarantee, that anyone who steps close to you while you wear this shirt will gain an IQ boost!

Complexity @ IAIA
The CSSS is at IAIA for the first time and I think that's great, so I thought we could acknowledge that in the shirt's design. I collected and drew patterns found in Mimbres pottery to draw a basic shape (that's artistic pottery from Native Americans from around the area). Subsequently, I created a Lindenmayer system to generate a fractal from it. The Lindenmayer system is as follows:
axiom = A
rules = {
A -> [AraA][l+bB],
B -> [BraA]
}
You can check out the code and the basic design on my github https://github.com/benmaier/CSSS18_Lindenmayer_Shirt or a larger version of the pic https://github.com/benmaier/CSSS18_Lindenmayer_Shirt/raw/master/logo1_large.png .
However, since I don't want to offend anyone, I will check with some students from IAIA this week if using the patterns was done in an appropriate manner. Got one positive reply so far :)
Cup tape mountain
Sunset over a mountain inspired by one of the mountain ranges we can see from campus. The mountain is constructed from pieces of imaginary cup decoration tape, some of which have been cut lengthwise into two or three pieces. Alternatively, the picture is not showing a mountain and a sun, but data / system-behaviour in a coordinate system. The interpretation is yours.
