png vs print for an interactive art booth that I am running tomorrow

#AlgoArt

Super excited for my first local booth!

I'm bringing my pen plotter and games I've made for people to make their own algo-art 🖼

When its today

That's today

Red Sharpie and Blue Pilot G-2 Pen

#PenPlotterArt #Animation

18x24in perlin noise based flow field

It orange

Animation created in Unity then rendered using pen and paper
(Then composited in Unity)

#MadeWithUnity #PenPlotterArt

WIP animation plot 👀

Several pieces I plotted a while ago by layering different outputs from my Unity tool

#AbstractArt #PenPlotterArt

Bigly agree. I personally avoid using "Art AI" like diffusion based image generators, or whatever they do for video (altho gaussian splatting is neat tech)

But I will for sure ask an LLM why some code that I wrote more is slow and how I can do something similar in a more performant way

The animation sheet scans

Super simple animation, but since it is 4 seconds (48 frames) long it needed to be spread across 2 animation sheets (pieces of paper)

Both pages in the comments

@cheem.bsky.social thank you for OKC being a spot on your tour 🙏 I made you a gif

I compiled a few pages of animation into a single thing 👀

The hue is just offset by the shader after each page

Raw scan for this GIF

It is really annoying to me that I can't have a GIF and an image in a single post. Is there a reason or have we just not invented that technology yet?

Same base animation as my last post but filled in with circles instead of scanlines

I'm each render's infill is random, but I reset the seed each frame to get a random but temporally consistent animation 🤓

Testing using different infill settings for different values

Real Time Gallery Art Projects that run in Real Time on your device

New page on my site for showing of real time rendering stuff I work on

Rn it just shows a test for a mesh based particle system I'm working on. Technically it's rendering 250k particles and it runs at least OK on mobile 👀

And actually talking to other people in person has made me reprioritize different aspects of my work

I really like making textural abstract prints, but the people want a Good and Free PNG -> SVG Art Tool. And more literal art

It took like a week, but I am finally alive again after #OpenSauce

It was super cool to talk thru my Raster Image -> SVG Unity tool with so many engaged and interesting people! It was a huge confidence boost, even if it was a ton of work

WIP of a more simple geometric piece

I like the colors, but I think I might need to write a little thing to suggest color palettes. I tend to do the same handful of colors a lot

I plotted ~100 business cards!

Most of the stuff I plot is 1/1 so it's been fun seeing the same design drawn with different pens, and optimizing the deisgn to plot more quickly

#PenPlotterArt #Printing

Just finished my first real business card test! I'm not 100% happy with them, but I am like maybe 90% happy

Glitter pens on top of some drying up alcohol ink brush pens

#PenPlotterArt

I'm going to make a few more GIFs of sayings like this one. And I'd love some suggestions!
