My first ! I’m Paul and I’m an artist that uses modern code to create unique works using vintage pen plotters, which I also collect and repair as needed. My works are typically in CMY color but I also do monochrome or other specialty inks. I can do up to 36”x48”.

🚀 Boosts appreciated! Cheers!

CMY pen plot of overlapping arcs that looks wrinkly.
Monochrome pen plot of thick black lines that meander like roots. The background is filled with outlined squares.
CMY pen plot of a circle with various hatch fills that are dominated by quadrants of green, magenta, and yellow.

CALL OUT! Please boost!

Hello generative art people! This year I am heading up arts & installations at EMF Festival.

https://emfcamp.org/

We have a new shorts cinema showing a rolling programme throughout the festival and we think it will be a great way to showcase the generative art world.

If you have something short (~1-15 mins) you'd like shown, please email your name, a title and a link to:

films@emfcamp.org

Fun🤪fact: you can generate a julia set inside ðe mandelbrot set by just switching c to a constant halfway θru 🐱
(ðo a lot of points escape from ðis, so it's only visible wiθ escape time / orbit traps)

I’ve been for a while now but I wanted to do a little today since I’m participating in this year. Here’s an idea I’ve wanted to implement for a while. Designed in Python, plotter on a HP 7550 Plus vintage plotter.

A HP 7550 Plus pen plotter with the lid open and the Joy plot on the stage.

What an amazing artist has passed today. I'm guessing that lots of my friends here already know about Vera Molnar's work.

In case you don't, here's her wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vera_Moln%C3%A1r

"Molnar is widely considered to be a pioneer of computer art and generative art..."

I hope that her website will be maintained: http://www.veramolnar.com/

generative art version of the halting problem: it is generally impossible to determine if letting an algorithm continue will produce a better or worse artwork

Vorticial gloop

This is basically the same code as my flocking algorithms, but looks cooler. 12,000 particles "flock" to be near their loop neighbors while avoiding other collisions.

Flock by hue

Particles are most strongly attracted to the hue just ahead of them on the color wheel and flee the ones opposite.

- Flocking

4000 particles swarm around each other creating temporary rainbow flows that break and reform as they crash into each other.
