Prompt for #genuary27 is 'Code for one hour. At the one hour mark, you’re done.' I started with a vague idea of having a pattern in two color schemes layered by floating blobs. Used the the blobs from wobbly function day. I like the idea that this is an abstract autumn forest with cold clouds overhead, but that narrative is a happy accident. I stayed true to the prompt and stopped at an hour.

Soft autumn colors in triangular grid with dark lines in a vaguely tree-like pattern. Blobs travel up the canvas, displaying the same pattern but in cooler shades of green and blue

Well, that recursion turned out kind of pretty.

I quite liked how this macro photo I snapped of a small mullberry blossom came out.

I don't usually like to post anything this WIP and these are only part of the final design I have in mind, but I'm really finding the sort of painterly effects I'm getting fairly charming here.

I've been reading Liu Cixin's "The Three Body Problem" so for #genuary7 and #genuary8 I imagined a loading animation for the game "Three body" that appears in the book. It does simulate physics like gravity, acceleration and such, but I make no claim to scientific accuracy.

"Between a high solid wall and an egg that break against it, I will always be on the side of the egg. No matter how right the wall may be and how wrong the egg, I will stand with the egg''.

I think I should make a little series of botanical sketches (in my chosen medium of code, of course) of local native plants. Maybe I'll set them into a pattern later.

Trout lily (Erythronium americanum).

Stayed up late last night, slowly tearing apart photos of mine in a (hopefully) beautiful (or at least interesting) way.
With code.

Playing around with different algorithms to pack circles. Feeling like I needed something peaceful.

Loosely packed circular arrays of smaller circles in discs like orbits. Dotted slightly wavy lines surround them. This palette is in earthy shades of blue and brown.

For #genuary18 (Bauhaus), I focused on the work of Joseph Albers, who taught at the Bauhaus and was married to Anni Albers (see #genuary11). A lot of his most famous work is based on color, but I found his shape-focused monochromes the most interesting.

BloomScrolling.

It's scrolling! Still want to work on the background pattern, as the results are uneven at times. Overall pretty pleased with it.

Finished my second #genuary ! I try to make something real and good for every prompt. Some always succeed far better than others. I learn a lot and am left with many threads to pick up and explore. Have really enjoyed seeing everyone's work this genuary, nice job all! Here's a little generative goodbye song, sung by simplex noise tuned to a minor key.

Well, #genuary29 is SDF's and #genuary30 is shaders, which often use SDF's. Seems natural to combine them. Last year,'s Genuary the SDF prompt lead me to spend February and March learning shaders. However... as soon as I learned enough to make something decent, I went right back to Javascript. So this sad blob is a slight reworking of where I left off in my shader journey.

Been sick in bed for the last couple days. Between sniffles and sleeping I started code-doodling. This started as an attempt at splattered paint, but gradually found form. I guess I'm ready for spring already.

Off-white canvas gradually fills with colorful gradient filled lines coming from top, grassy lines coming from bottom and droopy flower comes spreading out in middle top.

Building upon my experiments with the space colonization algorithm. This time placing defined constraints on the placement of the 'nutrients' the growths are seeking, in order to roughly form shapes and a tiling pattern.

Branching growth pattern fill in rectangular shapes (minus regularly placed circles.). Then each circle is filled with the same sort of growths.
