New Uses for Bus Modulation


Playing around with some new bus modulation features in the Studio Artist paint synthesizer. Bus modulation is a way to modulate some paint synth parameter spatially based on another layer's luminance values.

Aporkalypse Now


Inspired by swine flu mania, which the local newspaper here on Oahu is heavily promoting this week. Created in the Studio Artist 4 paint synthesizer.

Abstract Parrot (not really)


Procedural image created from MSG preset. This one reminded me of an abstract parrot for some reason.

MSG Mod Art


These remind me of 50's mod art images. They were created via directed evolution of MSG processors in Studio Artist 4.

Lorenz Attractor


Using the Studio Artist paint synthesizer to paint lorenz chaotic attractors. I'm using a MSG path start generator and the new spline from last path start path shape option. I added some support for z axis rotation of the lorenz attractor MSG processors. the second image is a 3D rotation along with some brush size modulation as the painting progresses.

More Traveling Salesman Problem Abstractions


You can use this new MSG processor to generate really abstract imagery, or to get more representation. It's all based on solving the traveling salesman problem.

Traveling Salesman Problem Abstractions


Some facial abstraction ideas based on solving the traveling salesman problem. These were all done using the new MSG processor.
