Remember, equal opportunity and DEI initiatives existed not to supercede meritocracy, but to make it work for everyone. Trump's admin doesn't want a meritocracy. They want gender and skin color to supercede meritocracy.

After a year or so, I revisited my generative art project "Radial Pointillist". Apart from trying to address some procedural issues, I also added a few "brushes". I'll do a proper write-up later, but am generally liking the results:

When I tried it out a while ago I remember feeling it could be awesome if I had the time to put into it. For some reason I just didn't feel I had it in me to follow through. Sounds like I should put it back on my radar.

A while back I did a first-stab at generative art called Radial Pointillist. Sometimes I like to revisit it, and sometimes it makes something that I like.
