Algorithmic Collaging

Algorithmic Collaging

After a few hectic weeks and the recently concluded Miami Digital Art Fair, the pace has finally started to slow down as the year comes to a close. This pause offers the perfect opportunity to dive back into my algorithmic collaging and continue exploring. ☁️💙☁️💙☁️💙☁️ Related X post (Dec 12th, 2024) / Instagram post (Dec 12th, 2024) […]

Generative Collaging Continued

Generative Collaging Continued

How experimental is your creative coding process? I often find that manually going through certain steps helps me better understand the effects I want to achieve through code. This might involve experimenting with mockups, identifying which digital manipulations get closer to the desired results, and then iterating from there.  ☁️💙☁️💙☁️💙☁️ Related X post / Instagram post / BlueSky […]

Generative Collaging

Generative Collaging by Martin Lukas Ostachowski

Returning to collage-making, but with a new approach: I’m currently exploring the use of code to create seed-based collages from images. My goal is to fragment and reposition parts of an image in a way that allows me to reconstruct the collage later and potentially apply the process to videos. Early tests have been quite […]

Generative Word Clouds

Having primarily worked with physical tiles based on painted elements, drawings, and stamp marks, this animation takes a different approach by translating word densities into shades to form cloudscapes. For this study, I used the word ‘Cloud,’ but I already have a few ideas for how I can expand on this script in future iterations. […]

Parameterizing Font Clouds

Parameterizing Font Clouds

One often overlooked aspect of generative art is parameterizing the algorithm to allow control over the final output. While I’m unsure how others approach this, I spend a considerable amount of time fine-tuning parameters to “weatherproof” the algorithm within a specific range of desired outcomes. In this example, I experimented with a font script, adjusting […]
