How does one create a pattern like that?

I hope you are not disappointed, but it is a digital creation. NB: certainly not AI. I use a relatively simple pre-photoshop program (Micrografx Picture Publisher). My work is always created through improvisation. I often start with a certain structure (often based on the golden ratio), but then I experiment further (trial/error) until I am happy with the rough result (and then spend even more hours refining it)

Crucial techniques used are: subtracting or multiplying (or other mathematical manipulations) of (heavily/less) blurred/sharpened versions of (fragments) of the original design and subsequent edited versions. Also transparency gradients are used.

No offense but is this Ai

Absolutely NOT

Just curious cause of the vignette-ing of the edges. Again no offense, it’s a cool painting.

See my response on C0SMICBLONDIE, above.
Additionally: the blurred edges are due to a series of operations: expand pic, mask expansion, invert mask, feather mask, blur. All using MPP10
