Generative "music" for features the Langton's Ant from my "Grow a seed" continuously modifying a drum pattern sent as notes to the Korg Volca Beats. The wobbly functions from another previous prompt control the pitch of arpeggiated tones synthesized using the Sound library which I never used before.

Perhaps a bit too chaotic for

A coloured 10x16 grid of tiles is modified by a Langton ant. One row is highlighted and advances downwards each step. One tile colour is brighter than the others which determines the MIDI pattern to send to a Korg Volca Beats which emits percussion sounds. A white comet traces a curvy path to the right of the tile grid. An arpeggio of tones vary in pitch according to the movement of the comet.

well, I did generative music for genuary, but it may not run on many devices - sorry.

Only half over, but participating in has been an amazing investment. Don't tell anyone, but I'm several days ahead of schedule. There are 3-4 things already that I have been wanting to explore, some for years. This forced me to get into them, and it's going to open up a lot of possibilities over the next year or more.

Which of the 5 randomized prompts did you get for ?

I get a different prompt on my phone, tablet, and laptop.

bornach, to genart

A plot of the point (x,y) where

x = 0.25sin(0.9t+PI+sin(1.1t+1.4)0.9) + 0.25sin(0.6t+3.2+sin(1.3*t+1.6)*0.5)

y = 0.3sin(t+sin(1.2t+1.0)1.4) + 0.2sin(1.2t+4.0+sin(1.4t+0.4)*1.8)

for t starting at 0 and increasing, looks like a freehand scribble that eventually meets its starting point and retraces itself over and over.

A long squiggly line being drawn, starts in one corner, makes serveral curves all over the image, eventually meeting its starting point.

Genuary 2024 Day 9: "ASCII"

I took the easy way with this challenge, and just used the letters in "ASCII" to create an abstract pattern.

Genuary 8: Chaotic System

My take on the double Pendulum.
The math on Wikipedia gave me a headache, so I solved it with coil forces: the balls are connected with an invisible coil and one of the balls is connected to the upper middle with another coil.

The varying colors have varying coil constants. It takes a while for them to go out of phase but then they do it enthusiastically...

2 blue dots start moving under the forces of gravity and 2 coils connecting them and a fixed point. They start getting a rainbow tail that starts to move more and more diversely until it dissolves into complete chaos.

Aha! There are actual prompts now for

https://genuary.art/prompts

I'm still not sure how, or even if, I'll participate this time, but I'm mulling it about in my brain.

bornach,

@kristinHenry I probably won't be able to participate in every prompt like I did last time. A lot has changed since then. Less free time.

But I could still do the background research. Good opportunity to learn about many artists and artistic genres.

bornach,

@kristinHenry
During the Christmas break I've managed to make a start on half of the prompts

This does not yet include the prompt. Something infuriating going on with that one 😉

bornach,

@kristinHenry
And only just realised there was more than one interpretation for the prompt. Might explain why the team didn't add extra elaboration or links to research.

I'll probably just choose whatever meaning that is easiest to implement in code.
