Subway Entrance

Stack filtering of some 'ruins porn' abandoned industrial landscape imagery using auto-mutating temporal ip ops.

Head Thatch

Dual axis scan tracker experiment using a folder of positioned head shots fed into the scan tracker temporal ip op effect.

Observer

Another gallery show adaptive auto-masking experiment. The imagery builds up over time over several GS cycles.

TeeShirt Man

Auto-mutated paint experiment using gallery show features.

Sketch Variations 2

How you index sort a set of start points for a sketch can dramatically effect how it looks when you connect the points in sequence. Trying out some different variations available in the path start control panel of the paint synthesizer.

TSP Sketch Experiments

Playing around with TSP (traveling salesman problem) optimized sorting for building sketch effects in the paint synthesizer.

Another TSP sketch variation.

Call to Arms

Experimenting with auto-randomized temporal image operations used to create stack filtering effects from a folder of images.

Friends

Another gallery show source image build up experiment, again with self mutating vectorizer effects. So the source images are mutating and the canvas image build sup over several gallery show cycles.

CutOut

Generative source image buildup along with randomized vectorizer effects grabbed during a gallery show run. The source image builds up over several gallery show cycles with this approach.

Facing Forward

More experiments with randomized dynamic paint presets and auto-masked generative source image buildup.

Virtual Head Explosion

Since it was derived from continuously mutated head shots recombined with a start cycle gallery show algorithm, then randomly painted in with a mutating paint synthesizer technique.

Faceless Face

Faceless painted image of an ever changing generative face. Source image is being mutated and re-combined with other randomly selected images over time as the gallery show cycles progress.

PuzzleMan

Generative process running in gallery show. Working with a folder of randomly selected new paint presets, along with a start cycle process that auto-modifies the source image randomly over time.

Red

Auto-mutated dynamic brush paint synthesizer effect.

The Fly

More generative gallery show experimentation using adaptive source and effect processing simultaneously within the successive gallery show processing cycles.

The Thinker

I'm using a custom PASeq during start cycle processing in a generative gallery show process to manipulate randomized source imagery using adaptive thresholding and associated adaptive auto-masking at the same time i auto-mutate the actual processing.

DreamCatcher

More experiments with generative gallery show processes that simultaneously re-combine different random source images as well as auto-mutate vectorizer presets on the fly to build up imagery over several cycles.

Implosion

Political, psychic, or perhaps just explosive? I'm referring to 'implosion' when i ask that question. Another experiment with generative processing that occurs over several different cycles, buildup a continuously modifying source image as well as auto-mutated processing applied to that ever changing source material.

My Symmetry Crutch

Yes, symmetry could be considered an easy crutch to fall back on. But it is effective. Modification of yesterday's post to jazz it up.

Spattered Wall

More experiments with generative modification of multiple source images while simultaneously mutating effects presets over  several processing cycles.

Dangerous View

Combo of paint synthesizer and some vectorizer outline technique built up over several cycles with an ever shifting source image as the build up cycles progress. Again, trying to break free of the curse of the static source image.

Losing Representation

Experimenting with some new ideas for procedurally abstracting the Studio Artist source image, which is used as a 'source' for painting or other effects. So by incorporating a generative process that modifies the source as well as generates effects based on it, you are creating new abstracted anchoring structure for a visual image as well as a new effect that work off of that anchoring structure. I'm still working through automatic ways to do this, so this was my first attempt at a particular approach yesterday.

Death March

Gallery show semi-autonomously interpreting current events through the filter of it's self-mutating generative effect build up process.

Speech

Current events imagery run through an automated self-mutaing gallery show based process.

Policja

More current events imagery created by automated generative processes using self-mutating gallery show features.

Rally

Working with some topical news imagery as randomized input to a generative gallery show process.

MegaMouth

More constrained auto-mutation of paint presets in using some of the new gallery show features.

Pensive

Working with constrained mutation in gallery show processing a randomly selected set of  'watercolor' tagged paint presets.

Elemental Experiments 2

More experiments with using path start regionization to build elemental paint strokes in the paint synthesizer.

Ekman Faces

Playing around with a folder of Ekman faces (which are supposed to define perceptual axis for different emotional states).

Elemental Experiments

Simplistic paint stroke modulation generated during some testing.

Overlayer 2

Another gallery show screen grab during some testing.

Overlayer

Still more multi-cycle overlay experiments using auto-randomized gallery show features.

Vectorizer gallery show overlay experiment.

Geo Overlay

Gallery show screen grab during adaptive auto-masked randomizing vectorizer technique session.

Watcher

Generative overlay from a series of auto-randomized vectorizer gallery show cycles.

BlockHead

Grabbed this primitive abstraction during some gallery show testing.

Unarmed Civilian

Another gallery show cycle overlap buildup experiment. This kind of thing can get sloppy or chaotic due to the random nature of the whole process. But sometimes interesting things pop out. Like most autonomous randomizing generative processes, you need to pick through a lot of questionable images to find interesting one. You can use an image stream to save the entire automatic gallery show run, and then wade through the image folder after it's finished processing.

Thinking

More gallery show experiments using adaptive source masking in conjunction with repeated cycles of auto-randomized vectorizer effects.

Festival

Screen grab from a gallery show run using randomized adaptive source masking and randomized vectorizer effects.

Robot Attack

Another stack filtering experiment based on a folder of 'killer robot' source imagery in combination with self randomizing temporal ip op effects.
