Hi, before asking i'd like to say that i love your work, thank you. Here is my problem: I'm doing animations with the moire program and when there is 24 frames you can see nice movement but in short time, so i wanted to do like 1000 frames, but in this case you can barely see any movement. How can i make a large animation with nice movement betwen frames? Thank you

Hi, thanks :) If you want longer animation just loop this n (24 or so) frames using some other tools like ffmpeg or something similar. You can also comment out line 63.

Hello, I'm wondering if there is a way to use the composite_video_simulator script to process video. It says in the readme that it should be able to process video, and I've looked at the original author's readme as well. I'm new to processing and keep getting the "could not find a method to load" error on all formats of video -- works great for photos though. Thanks much for all your help!

Well. Actually no, my script works only with images. You can cut videa into individual frames and this way process it. Original script requires ffmpeg to compile and run. It is not hard if you have knowledge about compiling stuff on linux.

Hi man. Can u upload a little tutorial video for ussing FM modulator? Im trying to use it in prosessing but i cant make it works. Thanks! amazing work!

No videos, I’m old school. The most common problem with my script is using Processing 3 instead of Processing 2. Switch to the older version and everything should be ok.

On the processing 3 sketches you have there is an error. "Can not find anything called surface" Is there a fix for this? Thank you!!

Use Processing 2.x. Scripts do not work with Processing 3 (unless you use that from Processing3 subfolder on github)

Hello there. Whenever I run the sketches you made I get the error below. I am new to processing so I know this is probably an easy setting thank you! "The size of this sketch could not be determined from your code. Use only numbers (not variables) for the size() command. read the size() reference for more details." Thanks in advance

Hello! My scripts work only with Processing 2.x. This is the reason.

Is there anyway to live datamosh? Also do you know where to get the P5 glitch library?

Answers are: rather no and no.

Plenty of my concepts require point based rendering, i.e. setting millions of points on the canvas. This method sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t when using Java2D (default Processing ren…

I want to start learning generative art... where do I start?

First, learn to code. Second learn any generative art framework. You can start with this: https://www.funprogramming.org/

Second: learn some math. This is cool: https://www.youtube.com/user/codingmath

Third: read and modify others code and concepts. Great place for this: https://www.openprocessing.org/

Fourth: experiment a lot and find your way. Learn more by making. Don’t afraid failures.

No chance, all stuff is generated.

I wonderning how you made two glitches from september, one of a girl on a green background and the other one about a red figure in the center. If you don't mind to tell me of course. I want to do something similar with my face in the case of the first one. And in the case of the second one I guess there is some layering stuff involved, it's so awesome. Anyway if you prefer to keep your secrects that's fine, just wanted you to know that I love your work and that your work is an example for me :D

Hi! Sorry for late response. I share my techniques. I’m not sure if it’s going to be helpful since most of the stuff is a result of experiments and often are achieved by chance.

Red figure: http://generateme.tumblr.com/post/165523792435 It’s pure sonification (ie. image processed as a sound). I don’t remember which filter was used and what preparation was made. It looks like low-pass filter but it would be too easy. If you want to try this technique you can use Audacity (more filters, requires image->RAW conversion) or my Processing script (fast track): https://github.com/SonifyIt/sonification

Green girl: http://generateme.tumblr.com/post/165329241600 This one is more complicated. I believe that it was done with such steps: first, convert to LUV color space; second: some sonification filter; third: vector field transformation (these are 2d->2d math functions which I use to morph/tranform image); fourth: blending sonified image with transformed using different type of composite methods for each color channels. Possibly slight blur at the end.

I make most of this stuff with code (Clojure or Processing).

I hope it helps. If you want to know more - message me.

very much interested to learn.Which plugin/software are you using? Could be done with grasshopper?Can I have a training from you?

Thank you. I use plenty of glitch techniques (databend, datamosh, etc) and generative coding with Processing/Clojure. I’ve never used Grasshopper but I think it can be great tool for generative stuff. About training - depends what do you want to know, but generally I share concepts. Just message me.
