Electric sheep
















I found this screensaver a while ago when I was looking into algorithmic art and artificial life for a project I was working on. I just thought I'd take a few screenshots of it because I think it's very pretty! I particularly like the blue one. You can do amazing things with algorithmic art, and fractals and stuff. I actually think my favourite bit of AI programming I've done was for my generative creativity course, where I made a predator-prey robot simulation as the basis for the generation of art. I have spent far too much time playing with that! You can see it
here, (before the uni deletes me!). You can restart it by refreshing your internet browser.

You should look into 'Processing', its a Java-based-language for 2D and 3D gfx programming like those screenshots, but its high level enough that you can write a 3D spectrum analyser in like 200 lines.

Oh and hi!
