Algorithmic Knitting - by Stephanie Pan, Stelios Manousakis (Modulus Foundation), 2025 https://2025.algorithmicpattern.org/proceedings/7TMTMW/paper.html Interesting project, that translates algorithms into various knitting techniques such as knit-and-purl textures, fairisle colorwork, intarsia and lacework, with further research into cable textures. The pieces are focusing on Cellular Automata (CA) as a means for generating texture and colorwork patterns. Owing to the grid-based nature of this algorithm, “many fiber arts provide natural ways of depicting cellular automata”.

'Maljakko mäeltä CLXXXI' #monochrome-monday #mono 61 ⬛ ⬜ This iteration of 're-frame' is a computational collage of a landscape by Pehr Adolf Kruskopf and a still life from Alfred William Finch. The composition is at index 181 within the series. The title and this script is generated from the combination of the available metadata of the algorithmically selected artworks, based on the copyright-free, CC0-licensed collection data of the Finnish National Gallery. Made this piece in 2024 for an exhibition, organized by the Finnish National Gallery. Was great experience having @highlight as the chosen platform to publish the artworks Explore live on @highlight at https://highlight.xyz/mint/base:0x681181Da71E15bb24af8c7CBbCA814189e668106?tokenId=181

'Infinite Sand Sorter' - exhibited at Myriad festival, Stockholm 2024 "Infinite Sand Sorter is a drawing machine caught in an unending cycle of making very slow movements. Its performative act of marking traces in the sand echoes ancient methods of sketching, doodling, and conceptualizing ideas in the sand—practices common among children, indigenous gatherers, playful philosophers and creative tinkerers. Continuously sorting sand, the machine grapples with the harshness of physical reality—filled with friction and entropy—while trapped in an endless loop of software-driven instructions: turn, move, rest, repeat."

bitverse from @cspok seems an excellent hub for all things generative art - drops, events, articles... especially like the open call section - a much needed platform for cultural aggregation 👏 https://bitverse.art/

Completed this year's Genuary event by publishing a generative artwork on @editart each day for one month ~ pheeeew I contribute these works to this week's #monochrome-monday #mono day, since most artworks are monochrome by using a dominant color only (usually ⬛ or 🟦 combined with ⬜ ) --- Thanks to the community, @pifragile for the frameworks and our discussions, @piterpasma for organizing the thing, and kudos @mikegee for the constant support ~ much appreciated! Putting together a daily series of code-based responsive artworks with webaudio sound synthesis (and sometimes other frameworks) was more than a challenge tbh - learned a lot about mental states and consistency, beyond the code itself. *& _%^---] A deeper look at the process and motivations behind some of the pieces coming soon. Meanwhile, you can browse the full series below on my @editart profile ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/user/tz1av8SwB6GnswEha6ssRinaYM5bWft5ih69

GLSL day. Create an artwork using only shaders. Genuary Day 30 + 1 Prompt credit: @pifragile --- Creating binary grids with different resolutions using GLSL’s step() function, and adding subtle movements to give the structure an organic feel.

Its not a bug, its a feature. Genuary Day 30 Prompt credit: Bart Simons --- Displaying brightness of a 3D buffer (shown top-right) on an ASCII grid using variable-width font instead of monospace While the distortion is intentional here, it happened many times accidentally during the development of my projects. Always a delightful surprise!! Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT1QDoCUyVC6bYbwb67DkzFD3uewJamEnQLe

Genetic evolution and mutation. Genuary day 29 Prompt credit: @monokai --- Evolving step sequences that navigate a grid from a starting point to the target character "E". The sequences are visually tracing their paths while producing a pentatonic tone with each new step. Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT1SnSwcSKwAecBxrUojxK1jjsmyd5NNrc4L

No libraries, no canvas, only HTML elements. Genuary Day 28 Prompt credit: @pifragile --- Setting up a grid of text-based <div> elements, each with automatic scrolling. The rhythm of the sound is driven by the computer’s internal timer, with a twist in how the intervals are divided. Explore live on @editart ↓

Lifeform. A shape or structure that behaves as if it’s alive or growing. Genuary day 27 Prompt credit: ManuelLarino --- A minimalist, custom artificial life system visualized as a grid of text. Agents are wondering around, exploring the space, while maintaining proximity to one another. The coloured characters with '0' are repelling, while the ones with '1' are attracting the wondering agents. The soundscape evokes wind and chimes, using filtered noise and occasional, subtle audio clicks. Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT1RcRs3Hwc54H7MRU3t4vAKLYrvVBbmrtFG

Recursive Grids. Split the canvas into a grid of some kind and recurse on each cell again and again. Genuary day 26 Prompt credit: @pifragile Also, contributing this piece to this week's #monochrome-monday #mono, our regular ritual, coordinated by @vortac & artist friends What you see in this day's experiment: Subdivide a plane and display the area of each cell. Subtle, almost imperceptible motions, accompanied by sonified, filtered white noise. --- Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT19eEZhoS73Pv5ceESvNaEYdn8PEh5jzGDw

Organic Geometry. Forms that look or act organic but are constructed entirely from geometric shapes. Genuary day 25 Prompt credit by Manuel Larino --- A grid of characters and lines, controlled by a reaction–diffusion system. Forming emergent textures that guide angles and thickness, while driving two filtered, audible metronomes to create organic sounds.

Perfectionist’s nightmare. Genuary day 24 / Prompt credit: Sophia (fractal kitty) --- Exposing floating-point precision error, a limitation of binary arithmetic used by computers. Decimal numbers are stored as approximations, not exact values, because many cannot be represented precisely in base-2. When operations like division are performed, these tiny inaccuracies surface as unexpected results. Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT1KdqQquEe2enNfpD78jCWCKG6GizJ8bJWp

Transparency. Explore the concept of transparency. #genuary day 23 Prompt credit: PaoloCurtoni --- Transparency, taken literally: providing information and metadata about the environmental conditions under which the token was minted. The music reflects the mental states of an imaginary wandering machine. Turn sound on Explore live on @editart ↓ https://www.editart.xyz/series/KT1VJyG4jAhMRngQLJGdm8oP9zfa2oAU3rJS

Pen plotter ready. Genuary Day 22 Prompt credit: Sophia (fractal kitty) --- Turning code of day 20 into a series of machine-plottable line segments. This day could also cover - Day 1 (One Color, One Shape) - Day 18 (Unexpected Path) - Day 30 (It's not a bug, it's a feature, considering key press inconsistence) - and others. Explore live on @editart ↓

Bauhaus Poster. Create a poster design inspired by the German art school Bauhaus. Genuary Day 21 / Prompt credit: @pifragile --- Adaptive grid system with alternating color schemes. Explore live on @editart ↓

One line. An artwork that is made of a single line only. Genuary Day 20 Prompt credit: @josvromans --- Connecting the points of a warped grid without lifting the pen. Any patterns that appear in the drawing come from the algorithm arranging the paths to minimize the time needed to complete them. Explore live on @editart ↓
