Back on my #genuary stuff but I'm a week out of phase, here's a simple Boolean hack which makes a Sierpinski gasket

Here are all the minimal generating sets of the Boolean algebra over four elements.

I think I have given up on trying to make this more virtually interesting -- I think there is just not enough structure to work with. :(

The Boolean algebra/lattice here is all subsets of {A, B, C, D}, ordered by subset inclusion. A generator for this set is a set of sets, such that the entire algebra can be generated by unions, intersections, and complements. For example, {A}, {B}, {C} is a generator because we can get {A, B, C} via union, {D} via complement, and then build all the rest of the sets from those singletons.

Some 7-way radial XORs

I like the pareidolia effect of seeing the occasional angels and demons around the edges like the ceiling of a gothic cathedral.

Genuary 2026 Day 7: "Boolean algebra. Get inspired by Boolean algebra, in any way."

It did say "in any way". So I went with circles from a venn diagram and got the colors by randomly sampling pixels in an existing image: the red flower drawing I used yesterday.

Radial XOR

#Genuary7 Boolean algebra

(x ^ y) mod n creates a fancy pattern along the x- and y-axes. https://genart.social/@scdollins/111769274655415561

If we add more axes, the irrationality breaks into chaos, but near the origin we get some rather dramatic symmetries.

Genuary day 7: Boolean Algebra

This is an older project and slightly useless. You can find the sketches on openprocessing:

Colour VennDetta -https://openprocessing.org/sketch/2634928

and

Colour VennDango - https://openprocessing.org/sketch/2635918

Both sketches show logical relations AND, NAND, OR etc. of the colour channels r, g ,b of two given colours (the colour values are given as binaries for this purpose and the relations are calculated bitwise).

VennDetta is a little interactive; in VennDango, every relation is reduced to a sequence of NAND operations.

Boolean Algebra: NAND

This one stumped me for a long time, but this got me to explore some CSS drawing rules to create the XOR effect overlaying the text, as well as the middle row computing a NAND of the top & bottom.

Again #p5js shows its use for quickly prototyping elements for development of the Synthstrom Deluge open source firmware. I should be able to port over the code pretty easily. Here I simulated the way the OLED screen appears, just zoomed in a lot. The shape on the right represents an SD card.

#genuary7 Used Textual framework placeholders to generate a psudo-random grid of colors. Learned just enough to finish the prompt.

"Use software that is not intended to create art or images."

I've been using Excel at my job for decades now but it's liberating to have a reason to learn new tricks. I might be an old dog now, in which case this disproves that old adage....

Some crude formulas generate random-ish HSB values, convert them to RGB values, and then a macro applies color formatting to the cell based on those values.

My concept was to generate interesting waveforms using my Deluge synth, record it in Audacity, and save the spectrogram. That turned out fairly well. I rotated the image since I thought it looked better upside down. Then I made a little demo in #p5js to play around with image manipulation and blur and threshold filters just for the sake of #CreativeCoding.

#genuary7 - Software that is not intended to create art or images. Spreadsheets have to be among the most non-artwork-related software out there. So I made a Mandelbrot and Julia fractal using LibreOffice Calc macros. The macros resize each spreadsheet cell to square, then fill in the cell background with the appropriate color. #libreoffice #spreadsheet #fractal #genuary #genuary2025

I originally wasn't going to submit anything for this day as i had a self imposed challenge of doing everything via tracery and/or svg. but i was reminded of all the map art i had made in my family's season 4 #Minecraft server. when Minecraft is ostensibly a survival/building/farming sim/sandbox game and not really made for generating visual art.
