Whenever I walk in downtown Montreal, I keep looking up at the skyscrapers and the reflections of clouds. I especially enjoy how the windows seem to transform them into glitched clouds.
Each glass pane sits under a slightly different tension and pressure. This makes each one bow a fraction differently and act as its own mirror. The angles are just a degree or two off from their neighbours, but it is enough to make the clouds look offset and tiled. Each window tile carries only the part of the sky it catches.
What strikes me is how familiar the result looks. The building does, in steel and glass, exactly what I do in Python: break the sky into a grid and let each cell hold its own fragment.
