    "Pure black and white. No gray." and ”Generative Architecture." and "Inspired by brutalism."

    Combining the prompt for today and 2 earlier ones I had skipped that seemed to go well together. A chance to play more with lighting & shadows. Dithering with blue noise to just black and white pixels.

  2. #genuary20 - Generative Architecture. All I kept thinking of was the retro QBasic Gorillas game, where gorillas stand atop a generative city skyline and throw bananas at each other. I coded up a skyline generator to produce the classic look, then thought about modernizing it with a nicer color palette (see also #genuary16 generative palette) and some gradients. And... well that's as far as I got. #qbasic #gorillas #genuary #genuary2025

    Fighting the tattooed was futile, so when the banner fell, he ran into the forest. Soon, he could no longer hear the battle, only his own breath and the weird creaking of the trees

  4. #genuary20 - Generative Typography

    For typography, I used my Python library Ziafont, which I wrote to read font files and convert the glyphs to SVG paths. It was developed to support Ziamath for light-weight typesetting of mathematical expressions in pure Python. But for Genuary, instead of drawing the Bézier curves that normally outline a glyph, it takes the Bézier control points and randomly connects them with line segments. Generated from the QTAbbie font.
