Dual Sided Bezier Coloring
Playing around with 2-sided coloring for bezier drawing. Using it along with a hybrid geodesic fill here. I'm using the paint synthesizer brush load module to build the paint part of the effect.

Fright Night
Transition Context feeding the Studio Artist source area. The ever evolving source is painted with time particles as well as subjected to a dissipative rotational warp.
Line em Up
20 random images from a protest theme folder auto-configured into a Transition Context feeding the Studio Artist Source area with a slightly modified init configuration Vectorizer preset. The slight change is the new Smooth Loose Wobble region effect.

Protest March T2
I'm using a swap buffer to pull it off (2nd layer when working in V5.5). You can't use the Style for this kind of thing when working with Gallery Show, since the Style reloads esch GS cycle.

Quench
Added something i have wanted for awhile in Studio Artist pre_V6, which is a cycle hold option for the gallery show source.
ViewPoint
Reworking all of the gallery show preferences in development pre_V6 Studio Artist. Now that V5.5.5 is released we can open the flood gates to gallery show enhancement in the pre_V6 builds. The source options are way more flexible now.

Radiowave
Studio Artist V5.5.5 generated procedural MSG animation for the first audio track Radiowave on the Xenon Light Annihilation cd. That cd release is from an old music project i was involved in made in the 90s. Xenon Light music will soon be available on bandcamp. Very 90's industrial music kind of feel. This track is very ambient, but most of the cd kicks butt.

Bezier Cellular Automata - used to build a trailing video processing effect
Quick demo showing off how to build the bezier cellular automata idea into a paint animation.
Bezier Cellular Automata - proof of concept
Built a Paint Action Sequence (PASeq) in Studio Artist to demonstrate how one could build a bezier cellular automata. I can't claim credit for the idea (since one of my beta testers suggested it), but i will claim credit for the naming of the concept (until told otherwise, ha,ha). Like all ideas, someone else probably thought of it.

diletTante
Software development for apple computers sucks more and more with every new os and xcode release they vomit out into the world. A particularly tragic situation since they seem to do well on the hardware design side. But developing software for apple computers is like entering some Kafka nightmare vision.

a Glitch in the Matrix
Squashing gallery show generative ai paint mutation bugs is like living in a glitch in the matrix. Almost there (i keep saying that).
