  1. @tallpauley’s WordSiv is a Python library for generating font proofing text. See the docs on wordsiv.com/, which also provides a comparison to other useful tools like @jaf’s justanotherfoundry.com/generat and MIguel Sousa’s classic adhesiontext.com/.

    A key feature is Simple Word Probability (wordsiv.com/#why-simple-word-p) to give the resulting text a “realistic” shape.

  6. @MauriceMeilleur is back for another online workshop: Typographic Patterns and Animations with Python and DrawBot.

    For designers who code and love type, pattern, and motion, and want to incorporate them all in their work.

    Dec 7–15, 10am–1pm PT (18:00–21:00 GMT)

  7. Custom chart types in Matplotlib can be fairly challenging to work with due to the object model, but there are alternatives. #DrawBot has straightforward state-based interface to draw your own custom charts.

    By using it as a module in JupyterLab
    it is easy to combine with e.g. Pandas & you can have have immediate visual feedback too. (Mac only)

  8. A few spots left! Python for Visual Designers with @MauriceMeilleur. letterformarchive.org/shop/pyt

    Learn the basics of Python in the free macOS application DrawBot. Create and animate vector art, set type with code, and save your sketches as vector and raster images, videos, and .pdfs.

    Held over two weekends: Saturday to Sunday, September 21–22 and September 28–29, from 10am–1pm PT.

  9. Tried to create an account in the #drawbot forum but the captcha won’t let me, so instead pinging @justvanrossum
    for a little feature suggestion for Drawbot: Would be awesome to have a quick ”copy output as svg/pdf" functionality, for smooth integration with Illustrator/Inkscape.

  10. Total immersion: Coding C64 font specimens in #DrawBot using my C64 font in the code editor as well :)

  11. Mal wieder ein Reboot? Creative Coding und Generative Art mit DrawBot

    Da hat mir ja jemand wieder einen Floh ins Ohr gesetzt: Denn am Wochenende schickte mir Kalle, ein hier schon mehrfach erwähnte Freund aus Bremen, eine Mail, in der er mich auf DrawBot hinwies, einer Python-App für zweidimensionale Graphiken mit einem Fokus auf Printerzeugnissen. kantel.github.io/posts/2023110 #CreativeCoding #GenerativeArt #DrawBot #Python

  13. "I_m_like_that_Black_Crow__flying_over_the_road_that_leads_me_on"

    I gave the AI a Joni Mitchel lyric from Hejira, 1976. It did this. Pretty high-concept for such a simple line. I like it. ( 5 colours, 1.5 hours of drawing with mixed pens).

  15. #drawbot #skia Hey @rlafuente and @64kb have you seen this?
    github.com/justvanrossum/drawb
    I think I mentioned it a few years ago, maybe, my mind plays tricks on my personal timelines. It looks like it is slowly progressing.

  16. I wish the #Processing, #Python and #DrawBot communities had more interactions!

    If you like the idea of drawing with code, and, better still, drawing with Python, and you don't have a crazy expensive Mac*, you should try #shoebot shoebot.net or #py5 py5coding.org (or even if you do have a crazy expensive Mac...)

    You could use #Blender and #FreeCAD too! github.com/villares/Resources-

    *In Brazil, a Mac mini costs (USD 1700) about 7 times the minimum wage (USD 228)

  17. I'm working on a huge project to build PDF to learn how to design a specific script.

    Here is the v0.1 for Cyrillic.

  18. Mit Shoebot aus der Mac-only-Falle? Leider nicht!

    Bei all meiner Begeisterung für DrawBot und meiner vorgestern frisch erwachten Liebe zur Knotenschachtel (aka Nodebox 1) störte mich doch ein wenig, daß ich mit beiden Programmen wieder sehenden Auges in die Mac only-Falle tappe. Daher habe ich mich noch ein wenig umgeschaut und gehofft, daß ich mit Shoebot dieser Falle entgehen kann. Spoiler: Leider nicht! blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #Shoebot #DrawBot #DrawBotApp #Nodebox1 #Python #CreativeCoding

  19. Die Erkundung von Drawbot geht weiter: Random Rectangles

    Regelmäßige Leser dieses Blogs Kritzelhefts wissen es: Wenn ich ein neues Spielzeug habe, muß ich damit spielen. Und so habe ich am vergangenen Wochenende unter anderem mit Drawbot gespielt, der Python-Software (nicht nur) für generatives Design. blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #Drawbot #Python #CreativeCoding #GenerativeDesign

  20. Nachtrag: Noch einmal Drawbot (und PageBot)

    Im Nachtrag zu meinen gestrigen Überlegungen, daß DrawBot doch ein geeignetes Werkzeug sei, um computergenerierte Bildchen (hochtrabend auch manchmal Generative Art genannt) zu produzieren, um sie dann zwischen zwei Pappedeckel gepreßt als Kunstband zu verkaufen, mußte ich feststellen, daß ich vor etwa einem halben Jahr schon einmal nahe an der Idee war. blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #Drawbot #PageBot #GenerativeArt

  21. Generative Art auf Papier und zwischen zwei Pappedeckel gepreßt

    Wie wäre es, wenn man die Ergebnisse seiner Progammierbemühungen – statt sie in den geldgierigen Rachen der NFTs zu versenken – lieber auf Papier drucken und zwischen zwei Pappedeckel pressen und dann als Kunstband (via einem der zahlreichen Print-on-Demand-Anbieter) vermarkten würde? Bildbände gehen immer und sie sind auch wenig vom wachsenden Ebook-Boom betroffen. blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #DrawBot #GenerativeArt #Python

  22. Programmieren (DrawBot) lernen (auf Schwyzerdütsch)

    Und darin führt Josef Renner in einer Viertelstunde in die Programmierumgebung DrawBot ein – in reinstem Schwyzerdütsch! Ich muß gestehen, selbst ich, der ich in meiner Jugend einige Jahre in Baden-Württemberg (badischer Teil) gelebt hatte, brauchte einige Minuten, bis ich der Lage war, dem Vortrag zu folgen. blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #CreativeCoding #Python #DrawBot
