An explanation of the ideas and mathematical concepts used to create the animations shown in the one-year fx(hash) anniversary piece The Passing of Time.

My view on where we are now and where we are going with the gen art movement...

Recently, Amy Castor on Artnet released an article highly critical of NFTs, "The Boom and the Bust: How NFTs Went the Way of Beanie Babies". Let's break it down, paragraph by paragraph.

Images in digital art and photography are frequently purposefully perturbed with grainy textures, often intending to evoke a tactile feeling and to add an ounce of ruggedness to an artwork. In this manner, grain is a valuable tool on your generative artist tool belt to elevate your artwork. This article discusses several techniques to achieve grain with p5, texture overlays, SVG filters, and shaders. We’ll discuss each one in great detail and the ups and downsides.

This article continues the exploration of the ideas and mathematical concepts used to create the animations shown in the generative artwork The Passing of Time. Here, I explain how we can control animation speed across different browsers and operating systems and how we can computationally generate interesting color palettes with minimal code.
