Crazy Knight Curve

In the grand chessboard of randomness, a lone knight embarks on a chaotic journey—
Leaping through an unseen labyrinth, tracing a spectral dance upon the digital canvas.
Each step, dictated by fate, bends the arc of motion into a tangled elegance.
A curve emerges—not drawn, but discovered—woven from the whispers of unpredictability.

"Crazy Knight Curve" is a generative artwork created using p5.js, inspired by the erratic yet structured movement of a chess knight. The piece evolves from a series of constrained random choices, forming an intricate, curvilinear path across a dynamically sized grid.

The process begins with:

A randomly determined grid (5 to 300 columns and rows).

A knight that moves in an unconventional step size, dictated by two randomly selected offsets (s1, s2).

A defined number of steps, which are executed as long as valid moves exist.

The knight's movement follows a modified L-shaped pattern, with possible steps dynamically filtered to remain within the grid's boundaries. Each successive point in the journey is connected through a smooth Bézier-style interpolation (curveVertex), softening the rigid chess-like motion into a fluid, organic form.

Visually, the artwork balances geometric precision with chaotic spontaneity, creating a path that is at once structured and free-flowing—a perfect paradox of order and disorder.
