#GenerativeArt interlude
More fun with OEIS integer sequences.
Today we'll make some pseudospirals: a sequence of arcs with 90 degree turns in between, where the radii are driven off a sequence. Arcs may have a gain function applied. Negative radii flip direction.
A200437: Number of -n..n arrays x(0..9) of 10 elements with zero sum and no two or three adjacent elements summing to zero
Sequence negation (every 17th), no gain
Took some time to adjust the tube code to generate the smaller petals towards the center, but I still need to add a few more layers. There are a lot of these so I'm going to see if I can get away with using flat geometry but might go with little triangular tubes. I think it will also look a lot better when I make it a unique mat. Also, inverted taper makes for a very fun look. #3dart #creativecoding
Applications have opened for (Algo|Afro) Futures 2025!
(Algo|Afro) Futures is a mentoring programme for early career UK-based Black artists who want to explore creative coding and live coding.
Live coding is a performative practice where artists and musicians use code to create live music and live visuals. This is often done at electronic dance music events called Algoraves, but live coding is a technique rather than a genre, and has also been applied to noise music, choreography, live cinema, and many other time-based artforms.
(Algo|Afro) Futures will take place between June - July at Vivid Projects and will consist of five workshops and a live performance in August.
Up to six participants will receive mentorship from Antonio Roberts @hellocatfood and Tyger Blue @tygerblue
Each participant is supported by an access bursary of up to £500.
This opportunity is open for Black UK-based artists only. The call is open from 10th April until 23:59 on 5th May BST.
Further information about the programme, FAQs and the application form itself can be found here https://algo-afro-futures.lurk.org #creativecoding #livecoding #algorave #strudel #hydra #

I finally found a way to "pathfind" continous shapes on a random truchet tiles grid. Since everything is vector, I was able to recurse through adjacent points.
