Back to generative art I created a line grid looking like a street map. I tried curves but I wanted to stick to a contrast to the other smooth creations.

For inspiration of what to try I often look into nature with these awesome structures. Plants, water forming sand but also the macro view of landscapes, mountains and clouds.

What is your favorite source of forms?

Here's a hair like structure made with a vector-flow-field added variables for example for the transparency and a circular constraint.

In the last Genuary I made this looking more like fur and I wanted to come back to it.
Also, my hair looks a little like this. ;)

In the last days I think of combining these artistic structures with a game. So maybe a character running with such a flow field behind him or transitions made with the dithering I made some time ago.

Would you play and look into such a game?

The last post is the minimalistic creation of the same code of this one.

Here I overstretched every variable but for me it is special because it shows the similarity of circle and star and waves.

What do you see? Star, circle or space?

Now the music is in its flow, so I have time to come back to drawing and generative arts.

Today, I picked sine and cosine and combined them with some alpha values. I have many results and I will post some others of this session, too.

But here's a circle with a sine wave as the radius and this looped while changing radius and phase.

It's all coded by myself. I used mathematical functions to create this piece of art. And no AI.

2026 Genuary Wrap

This was my first time participating in Genuary. Here are some reflections about the experience.

Scheduled Work Means Work Gets Done

My long-standing journal practice has taught me about the out-sized power of small, incremental work completed on a schedule. And the Genuary work provided similar benefits. The main benefit, of course, is simply finishing thi

Last month I created some small animations using Python code based on prompts from #genuary2026. All videos are created by Python scripts using either matplotlib, or Blender.
