Coding my handwriting in Javascript - how I did it and what I’m doing with it.

My ArtBlocks debut, releasing on 30th May 2023. Find out how the algorithm works and explore some conceptual thoughts.

A deep dive on the early days of creative computing coming to life. Punch cards, plotters, light pens and lots more.

Continuing my mission to use AI tools for things they really weren’t designed for and aren’t very good at and then judging the results.

I asked GPT-3 & GPT-4 to follow instructions to create drawings in p5js and compared the results

Forecast is a long-form generative art project released on fxhash on 16th Feb 2023. This article contains info about techniques and some rambling about concepts and emotions.

Sol LeWitt‘s Wall Drawings aren’t actually drawings but, rather, instructions for drawings. I asked ChatGPT to implement them in p5js

A good pseudorandom number generator gives an even distribution of results from 0 to 1 but sometimes in generative art we might want something different.

What’s the difference between unexpected, random and chaotic? Does the universe contain any truly random events, or is it operating like clockwork, ticking from one event to the next?

Sometimes, a system is more than the sum of its parts. Simple rules can lead to complex and surprising phenomena. This is emergence.

I've been packing lots of irregular polygons into the canvas, and discovered some interesting (and some annoying) geometry along the way.

Randomness, rules and natural systems. Some non-restrictive definitions and an exploration of the form.

Maplands is a long-form generative art project I released on fxhash on 5th Jan 2022. It sold out 256 pieces in exactly 2 minutes.

… is to make things and then have other people look at those things and be like “woah, cool”

I asked other generative artists how the process feels to them

I had pictured something quite bold, graphical and geometric but I ended with gradients and floatiness.
