Finished cataloging all the artworks we collected via Kickstarter over the years. It was a really interesting period from 2013-2017 or so when artists made affordable editions available and skipped galleries.

After months of learning path tracers and compacting shader code, I'm finally ready to present my next work "Origin". No AI, no Photoshop, it's a 100% code-based algorithmic artwork in only 16kB, no dependencies. Soon on Art Blocks Studio. #algorithmicart

time to get HYPED about GENUARY 2025 GENUARY is the GENERATIVE ART MONTH GENUARY is an artificially generated month of time where we build code that makes beautiful things. It’s happening during the month of January 2025, and everybody is invited! #generative #genartclub

When you connect five tetrahedra by attaching their faces, you will be left with a thin empty space between the first and last: a volumetric angle of 7.356 degrees. Too small to fit another piece, too big to be lost in numerical imprecision. It is through these exceptions that complexity emerges.

Gm Gen art became a movement in the 1950-60s, is trad display (physical) compliant, yet its institutional, art market & mass recognition is still to happen Glitch art became a movement in the 1990s, Gif art in the 2010s… non trad display compliant (screen based)… super early is an euphemism

Gm Trying to get out of twitter, musk has too much power and is very open on using it in manipulative ways Won’t rely on IG, Meta is not letting go its personal data reselling model + their push into hardware (vr) makes it mega scary, same as any google hardware
