Thanks for the mention Karsten, also for the tip on more generative artists to follow. I too am happy to see more activity on my timeline here :)

@thresfold Yeah, it'd be nice if there was an option to share/link to one's Mastodon lists (configurable on per-list basis). At least we have the CSV list import/export feature...

Hey Karsten, thanks for sharing, I created a dynamic gallery (a while ago) that works with posts from all Mastodon users who have the tag #generativeArt (there is now a parameter to change the filter).

Happy to see the community here.

Mastodon post grid using the tag #generativeArt

@nclslbrn Super! Also great presentation of the detail views. Feature request: Is there any chance you configure the hashtag & instance via URL param/suffix? E.g.

.../mastogen/#GenerativeDesign

or

.../mastogen/?instance=mastodon.thi.ng&tag=GenerativeDesign

That'd be amazing!

@toxi It should be easy to implement, currently all settings are saved in local storage.
I'll let you know as soon as I've added this (URL params).
@toxi It's done, you can now use instance & tag as URl params

@nclslbrn @toxi Very cool! Thanks!
@Onsequitur @toxi I'd like to be able to create links so that you can open posts from your instance on a browser (or even better from a mobile app) to interact with them. I'd added a button on the user's name that lets you copy the user's address, but it's not optimal.

@nclslbrn @toxi

that #generativeart hashtag is bringing in a lot of AI... not that I have too much against AI, its interesting. My general objections follow from the idea that AI generates a subset from a vast set of knowledge, whereas traditional generative art tries to build something complex from a minimal set of rules.

#algoart?

oh well, I usually forget to hashtag anyway.

@Onsequitur @toxi "A minimal set of rules", I think that's how you recognize a good piece. It made me think of this one.

Attached: 1 image First try, first mistake: I forgot to remove the frame, I also usually leave control rectangles (so that the background is white when previewing the file and to see if the pen height is right), feel free to remove them for those who use my plots. @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] #plotswap #generativeart
