Looking back through an archive folder in 2024 I found the remains of an unpublished project. The folder contained several images of what appeared to be ancient megaliths and arcologies. From the initial visual prompts I began to reconstruct the ruins and topographies of an anachronistic civilisation. I named this territory Telekia and a small mythology quickly began to grow around the geology and architecture of this imagined place.

These landscapes were created by recursively looping height-mapped geometries back into a bespoke generator. In Telekia they say 'When the going gets weird, the weird turn recursive'.
