If you defend or support men in a position of power who are known to have predatory behavior towards female artists, you are a part of the problem. You are choosing to maintain an environment that makes the women in your community feel unsafe and sending us a clear message you find that behavior acceptable. Grow some balls and do better.
Been enjoying the emergent patterns of this vertex density spacing algorithm Ive been noodling around on.
Created a direct connection between my text editor and my pen plotter. Whenever I save my sketch, for better or worse, my Nextdraw automatically draws the results without me seeing a preview. I am gonna be doing some live coding this week and wanted to show the flow.

Film Screening: Emergence in Marfa
Thursday, 8pm, Oct 22, for Art Blocks Marfa Weekend
An award-winning documentary, Emergence in Marfa is a cinematic inquiry into the human pulse driving the generative movement. Set against Marfa’s minimalist landscape, the film looks past algorithmic logic to examine code as a physical, philosophical, and expressive material, featuring conceptual icon Bernar Venet @BernarVenetArt, sensory pioneers A.A. Murakami @aa_murakami, and generative pioneer Mitchell F. Chan @mitchellfchan.
Join director Logan Woodyard @loganxwoodyard alongside panelists Anna Carreras @carreras_anna, James Merrill @toThePixel, and Jeff Davis @jeffgdavis, for a panel discussion immediately following the screening.

Day #2 of making agents without the help of agents. Today they are able to coordinate through a series of really confusing OOP techniques. They're still awful at making anything interesting.

Plotter has been repaired, larger painting now in progress. #plottertwitter #generative
A thing from 20 years ago when I'd open up Bryce, randomly place a bunch of stuff, render it for like 14 hours, then post it on deviantArt with edgy captions.

James Merrill's BUSY is a statement about complexity: complexity in concept, aesthetics, and in the unique process that he developed to bridge his digital artworks into the physical world. @toThePlxel
The closest I'll ever get to coherent file naming conventions. (haters will point out the mix of .js & .ts files)
