It's officially day 1 of my Bsc in Maths & Physics but I've been getting ahead and already finding ways to make it _visual_ These are plots of thousands of polynomial functions with random numbers of terms, random coefficients and powers for each term.
This is so inspiring! Thanks also for all of the wonderful detail in your blog - it is so nice to be able to learn from your process www.amygoodchild.com/blog/cursive...

Love to see the first wave of orders of these prints starting to arrive!
look what just dropped in the mail! "Empirical hybrids of non-descript dimensions" 😁 great quality, well + carefully packed with good protection, the print arrived pristine #generative #genartclub
I don’t often lean into my photography degree these days, but as soon as I got these handwriting prints, I wanted to capture some shots like this, using lighting and a shallow depth of field to add to the atmosphere of the images.
I've been enthralled by this project ever since Amy started working on it, and finally prints are available!! I just ordered mine :D #genartclub

Gave in to doing some what-i-felt-like-doing instead of doing what-i-should-be-doing for a few hours.
Love how this is coming together (with thanks to GenArtClub friends for suggestions!) Also love the way the randomly generated title for this one references “the eclipse” - which matches the visual so well.
What does trust emit from? What is a neutron soaring through?

Getting ready to release a series of handwriting prints - let me share some behind the scenes and ideas!

I'm spending today setting up more generative handwriting prints and leaning in to bold colour choices.
I got some test prints on a few different papers! In the first image, the top left is Hahnemühle Pearl, bottom left is Canson Baryta Gloss and the right is Hahnemühle German Etching (matte). Matte is the winner for me as the colours are popping! What do you think?
I’ve been squinting at a lot of these debug views this week.
