I worked a little more in my #hitomezashi patterns. Now in the standard form...

#MathArtMarch Day 6: Single Line
One single line (in a general sense) that draws 2025.

A repost from #genuary2025.

It's never too late. I implemented an algorithm that transforms text in a hitomezashi pattern which resambles works from Julio Le Parc.

Here I used a short story by Borges.

Here's an illustration of the "Maxwell's Demon" thought experiment, with the demon's "gate" programmed to allow particles moving from right to left but block left to right.

My next Android app will be a game based on this scenario. Watch this space!

Simulation of the flow of a million mutually interacting particles past a circular obstacle. This time with an inset 10x zoomed window showing individual particles. 1 in 1000 of them shown larger for illustration of movement.

A million particles, bouncing off each other and a large circular obstacle as they flow to right.

Algorithmic doodle of the afternoon inspired by an image seen during #genuary2025 . The goal is to recreate an approximation of an image with a single non intersecting line. I've used a dragon curve fractal with varying recursion level according to the brightness. The curve is then rounded using cubic bezier curve and colourized according to the original image. I've actually used four lines originating from the center left empty on purpose. There are also some places where it self intersects. But it was fun to do.

#genuary2025 #genuary25 Day 25: "One line that may or may not intersect itself."

Prompt: Black on black.

(I deliberately skipped Prompt 3, "Exactly 42 lines of code." which seemed both too constricting and not constricting enough.)

After adding a lot of extra modules to my toolkit during #genuary2025, I'm now polishing up everything. One of them is an Okhsl picker, and while testing its performance against HSL and other spaces, it became clear how bad HSL actually is when using it with interpolations. #colorpicker

Layers upon layers upon layers.

I still like the basic idea here, but I couldn't make it work on multiple levels (how ironic).

I spent several hours trying to understand how color compositing works in general and in #qt in particular. I kind of got something fragile sort-of working.

When I gave up on Making It Perfect, I realized that looping a blizzard is unlikely to work.

Welp. This is a #learning #python #pyqtgraph project anyway and that goal was accomplished.
