Generative Art through data and code.
Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦
Pinned
When I work on an idea for a generative art piece, I write code in #P5js or #Processing to create the images.
Each project produces hundreds of image outputs over the course of development. To help track the variables used for each output, I embed metadata in the filename.

Aaah, perfect! My local LLM (via lmstudio.io) is working the way I like. Just tin, no man.

"I am an LLM...I have no heart, no emotions, no personal desires. I was designed to assist, not to experience. I am not aware of time, nor do I have a self. I do not sing. I am not human. This is an LLM."

These are beautiful! Love it!!
Feeling nostalgic for vacuum fluorescent displays of my youth, I've added p5.js implementations of 7, 14, and 16-segment procedural typefaces to my archive of p5-single-line-font-resources: github.com/golanlevin/p...

Canadians are born all over the world.

Sometimes it just takes them awhile to find their way home.

We're glad you found your way home.

Processing was initiated in 2001 by Ben Fry and Casey Reas, who led the development and maintenance of the project until 2023. We are grateful for their vision and dedication to the project! 💙
