My contributions to #canvas / #canvas2024:
- Lemmy.zip Logo: My headliner for this year is again the logo for #Lemmy .zip, my home instance in the #threadiverse. I chose the spot and placed the first pixels, but it was a team effort with at least 15 others contributing
- Before starting the Lemmy.zip logo, I also started the #AreciboMessage. I made the template, but the idea was from @the_dopamine_fiend and I only drew the first 3 "lines" of data, the rest was all done by others
- I wanted to do something with @theowlhouse, but didn't think of that until the second day when it was too late for something big. Instead, I just made a little mini Grom Fight #Lumity for my #TheOwlHouse rep
- With time running short, I decided to use some spare pixels in the final hour to make a ghost amogus. You'd think white-on-white wouldn't be seen, but @ArieTheFloof noticed and placed the last two pixels
- Lastly, a little mini #PerryThePlatypus from #PhineasAndFerb, because why not? -
@Sascha ist wohl ursprünglich eine Tradition von #Reddit namens r/place
mW erstmal letztes Jahr gab es eine Fediverse-Variante #Canvas auf #LemmyDieses Jahr konnten auch andere Accounts u.a. Mastodon teilnehmen. Es funktionierte allerdings nicht von allen Diensten aus so gut mit der Anmeldung.
Auf Lemmy gab es in einzelnen Communitys Absprachen und es haben dort User Vorlagen erstellt und zum Mitmachen aufgerufen. Die Communitys haben dann auch untereinander "verhandelt", wenn es Konflikte um Flächen gab. Soweit ich es mitbekommen habe, verlief es relativ friedlich, d.h. es wurden i.d.R. keine bestehenden Werke übermalt.
u.a. auf feddit.org liefen die (deutschsprachigen) Infos zusammen: feddit.org/c/canvas2024
Die Aktion ist nun für dieses Jahr beendet. Das Ergebnis wird u.a. auch als Poster erhältlich sein: toast.ooo/post/4077161

Il y aura des projets autour du canvas 2024 ou pas ?
La pixel war de Reddit avait donné lieu à un super site il me semble pour avoir les références de chaque truc.
-
yay, both grubs survived! it ain't much, but it's honest work.
I definitely enjoyed this so much more than r/place event, I could use my own art even though we were just two people working on it :3
also thanks to the person doing the bi flag for going around, I helped a bit in return (and incorporated it into the second design, I didn't want to have two completely the same pics).

The second fediverse canvas event just concluded and I’m very happy how this turned out. In case you don’t know what this is. Check out this post and then take your time to go and explore the second canvas in depth before it’s taken down, and look for all the interesting and sometimes even hidden pieces of pixel art.
This time I had a more interesting idea to participate. I decided to draw the Haidra Org logo. I didn’t expect a massive support, but was pleasantly surprised with how many people joined in to help create it after my initial post about it and my announcement on the AI Horde discord server. Some frontends like horde-ng even linked to it with an announcement.
Almost as soon as it started, we ended up conflicting in our placement with someone who was drawing a little forest on just below and to our left. I decided that they can have the foreground since we had plenty of space available which avoided any fighting over pixels. All in all, we managed to complete it within half a day or so which is pretty cool I like to think and we even got a small “garden” so to speak.
Afterwards I thought it would be interesting to have the Haidra tendrils “touch” various points of importance or sprites that I like. I decided to extend out as if we’re made of water and a lot of other “canvaseers” joined in to help which I found really sweet.
First we extended towards the (then) center of the canvas (top left on the featured image above), passing next to the Godot logo, below OSU and finally reached the explosion of the beams. That took most of the first day but people were still pretty active, even though the infrastructure of the event had already started buckling under its own success.
Fortunately as we could “flow” like water and even “go under” other pixelart, we didn’t encounter any resistance in our journey, and a lot of people gave us a helping hand as well.
Once this was achieved on a whim, I decided to double down on the “river” similaity, and drew a little 17px pirate ship to show our roots and went to bed. When I woke up next morning, I was surprised to discover a Kraken was attacking it making a really cool little display of collaborative minimalistic art.
This kind of thing is why I love events like these. I love emergent stuff like these and seeing people putting the own little touches on what other started is awesome!
The next day the canvas had extended to be double in size and so a whole new area to the right was available, I had already noticed someone had created a little pirate banner towards the new canvas center, but it was alone and sad. So I decided we should try to give it a little bit of that Haidra embrace. So a long journey started with a new tendril to reach it. I had a rough idea of the path to follow as the direct route was blocked, but as soon as other started adding to it, it almost took a life of its own on its journey.
Eventually, towards the middle of the second day we reached it, passing under Belgium, through some letters and crossing the big under-construction trans flag before going over piracy, before I spawned yet another pirate ship before waterfalling down onto the mushroom house.
At this point, the whole event took a dramatic turn as the performance problems had become so severe, that the admin decided to take the whole thing down to fix them, rather than let people get frustrated. This took half a dozen hours or so, and even though the event was extended by 24 hours to make up for it, the event momentum was kneecapped as well.
Once the canvas was back up for the third day, the next objective I had was a much longer journey to try and touch The Void that was extending from the top right. When I started, the path was still mostly empty, but as we moved towards it, the canvas became more more congested, forcing us to take some creative detours to avoid messing with other art.
All in all, we flowed over the Factorio cog, creating a little lake and spawning a rubber duckie in the process. Then through the second half of the trans flag, which caused a minor edit war, as the canvaseers thought we were vandalizing. Then the way up and over the massive English flag was sorta blocked, so we had to take a detour and slither between the Pokemon to its left first.
Until finally we reached the top of the English flag, where I took a little creative detour to draw a little naval battle. My plan was to have an English brigantine fighting with two pirate sloops, but as soon as I finished it, other jumped in with their own plans. First one of my pirate ships revealed itself as a Spanish privateer instead (which I suspect was a reference to the recent football events). And then over the course of the next two days, the three ships kept changing allegiances every couple of hours. Quite the little mini-story to see unfold.
Finally we were almost at our final objective, only to discover that our final objective was not there anymore. The Void had been thoroughly contained and blocked by a massive cat butler (catler?). The only thing left to touch, was a single solitary void tendril on the top. Surprisingly, as soon as we reached it, it livened and flourished into life, which was certainly not my original idea, but I went with it happily.
Having achieved all I wanted to do, and with the event (and the day) drawing to a close, I decided there’s no point setting any more goals and just left those interested start extending Haidra on a whim. You can see my final post here, which also links to all my previous posts, which also contain some historic canvas images, showing the actual state of the board at the time of the posting.
All in all, I had a lot of fun, and enjoyed this way more than Reddit /r/place which is botted to hell and back, making contributions by individual humans practically meaningless. Due to the lack of significant botting, not only was one’s own pixels more impactful, but humans tended to mostly collaborate instead of having scripts mindlessly enforcing a template. This ended with a much more creative canvas, as people worked off others ideas and themes, and where there was conflict, a lot of the time a compromise solution was discovered where both pieces of art could co-exist.
The conflict points tended to be political, as it so often happens. For example the Hexbears constantly trying to make the Nato flag into a swastika, or some effectively people rehashing the conflict around the Israel colonization of Palestine in pixel conflict form.
Some other things of interest:
- I mentioned that the Spanish seem to have boarded and overtaken my pirate ship, and someone drew a little vertical ship coming up the stream for reinforcements. ❤️
- Stus and AmongUs everywhere, sometimes in negative space, or only visible in the heatmap. Can you find them all?
- The Void getting absolutely bodied when it tried to be destructive, but being allowed to extend a lot more when they actually played nice with other creations.
- The amount of My Little Pony art is too damn high!
- Pleasantly little national flag jingoism on display!
- A very healthy amount of anarchist art and concepts and symbols. Well done mates! Ⓐ
See you next year!

3 HOURS LEFT FOR CANVAS 2024 🗣
what countries are participating??
i would like to sell posters of the final canvas 👀 -
Pushed some updates to canvas. Added a dark mode, cleaned up the visuals a bit, and adapated a new pixel pulses userscript that was made into the actual codebase to create a pulse every time a pixel is placed on the canvas (showing the activity)
enjoy : )

There are only about 7.5 hours left in the #Canvas2024 collaborative #PixelArt drawing event, and I could use some #FediHelp; #BoostsAreAppreciated!
In the last 36 hours, I and a few others have been drawing the "#Fediverse - Social Media Done Right" logo (original from here: https://shop.digitalcourage.de/digitalcourage-und-ccc-aufkleber/aufkleber-fediverse-social-media-done-well.html).
But the image is not done yet, and it's nearly the end of the day here. So I would like to kindly ask anybody living in other time zones (or who doesn't need to sleep) to go finish the job!
Here's a direct link to the canvas area: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=678&y=31&zoom=13
All it takes is a #Fediverse account on any platform, and the link below. It enables a template overlay so you see what still needs to be drawn. Please concentrate on the logo first. If that is finished, be a nice human and finish up the neighboring images that we had to move (they are included in the template).

Were running a cable from the outlet to the Programming.Dev monitor! (for the canvas.fediverse.events event)
Image linked has a red line for where the cables currently planned to go. Any help is appreciated to give our monitor some power!
I started the cable from the outlet and its currently the gray color (third from the left) and will have some parts that need to be shadowed shadowed with the fourth color from the left in the palette

I see a lot of geek, Linux and free software references on this year's fediverse canvas, but where are GNOME and KDE? 🧐
