It's been a while since someone posted to this thread.

I guess I'll post to this thread.

In the past two months I've been pixel sorting. A lot.

This thread needs a revival. gently caress it. I'll be that revival.

I had to google pixel sorting. Are you using processing? I'd love to start learning but there's so little time right now.

I'm using a variety of things at this point.

Mostly Processing. I still use it like I used Audacity. Alter. Save. Alter. Save. Alter. Save.
I had a month of being bored, reviewing code, and realizing that changing every single thing I wanted change in Processing is a lot less complicated than I thought. So it's Processing most of the time and PS to incorporate line relief if that's there.

Pixel sorting is fun.
That being said, as pretty as the end result a few lines down is, Processing can't create this:



That's the moment I realized I knew exactly what the gently caress I was doing in Audacity.
You can use just about every effect in Audacity. It just takes some (boredom/sobriety-boredom) to whittle down acceptable variables for most situations, test them, and code them down.
When I play with Audacity it's almost exclusively for -- well, the above.

I popped each of the below out in 2-7 minutes for a thing I do most nights for an hour.

I have, as of a few posts ago, more or less moved entirely to Processing.

I still love Audacity.

Processing and I go back way further and I'm working both on a toolkit for Processing and a VST for Audacity.

Here's my dumb face in the same fashion:

most of the day was spent tweaking processing stuff so p much all of my stuff for the past few days are reference points to see if things are doing what i want them to do. so, uh. here some of those reference points are. i know the sketch-looking one isn't /glitch/ per-se. it was the framework for a Kof sketch that is about to start drawing glitches and i thought it was pretty so... it's there too.

Take picture.
Run through Processing. Base vectors established; export map. (1)
Second run through Processing. Shadow vectors established; export map. (2)
Call Twitter API via Python. Pull latest tweets.
Check input variable; currently word/mood/etc (the guts used to run my Raspberry Pi Twitter mood lamp).
Compute mood for color (C); compute instances for generative variable (G); compute hashtag use for intensity (I).
(G) and (I) make out some.
Export (G)(I)'s lovechild (A); send with (C) to Processing.
Call image.
Apply (1) vector map to image; fill based on (A) -- (AA)
/// Revise to include a ChillTheFuckOut because it takes around 1.5m on an i7 with 10Gb RAM.
Apply (2) shadow vector map to (AA) -- (AAA).
ASDF Low: 15% full threshold.
ASDF High: 15% full threshold.
/// Done.
Stare. Start digging through friends' profile pictures looking for portraits.

Result:

You have no idea how much time you save me by not having to leave a sketch post-export to gently caress with layers.

Examples of above sentence:








Various.* from the past few days.




I have no idea what I'm doing. Apparently I'm doing it OK.

I was working on something that would take a bunch of small pictures, appropriately order per picture, then do a few effects.
This didn't do anything I had hoped it would do but it still looked p cool.

I was contacted by a show on a channel to do a bunch of things.
I would like to do a bunch of things for them.
I'm pretty sure they want to pay me in cash dollars for those things.
I would also like cash dollars because I throw those at problems to make them go away.

It's going to be a busy Saturday because I want to detail all of this out.

I have 19 days to get to Bangkok. For a year.
They're a day ahead of us so they expect me in 18.

Jesus gently caress.

I took 3 minutes out of working on the [as] commission. I'm pretty sure since they sent the contract Tuesday I can officially say, "Hey. I'm working on something cool for [as]. They'll be using it for Off the Air related things." without feeling like I'm going to jinx it. Either way I made this.

I have so much poo poo to do. I just got over being sick for around 10 days. I've been sick since I learned I need to be in Bangkok by the 19-20th. This is going to be a poo poo show. Or it's going to be a sad show and I get to humbly return the $1500 raised by life.indiegogo by my friends in the past 9 days.

I get myself into some weird poo poo.
