It's been a wild week again - The Goose got auctioned off at Sotheby's for 6.2 million, several online and offline shows kicked off and there's been a number of interesting reads about generative art and web3. Here's a recap about all of it!

In this tutorial we'll have a look at javascript generators and how they can be used for animating the drawing phase for our generative sketches. We'll cover everything from syntax to actually implementing a simple example using p5's draw loop.

This week we made a lot of art! We talk about some interesting developments in the world of generative NFTs, watch Alba launch, discuss the future of Tezos, as well as the dangers of AI. And we have a look at what I've been up to genart-wise!

And again lots of new things happened in the generative art scene this week! In this installment of Gorilla Recaps: we have a look at Piter Pasma's Universal Rayhatcher, stay up to date with Raph's creative code news #99, observe the launch of Alba.art, and many other updates!

In this post we have a look at the Javascript spread syntax, a powerful feature that was introduced with ES6 and which trivializes many tasks that deal with handling iterables.

In this post we will program a particle system in p5js from scratch. We'll mainly dicuss object oriented programming and delve into the necessary physics concepts to compute collisions, all while implementing a full particle simulation with P5JS.

This week we released a new token on FxHash, programmed a particle system in collaboration with ChatGPT, and looked back onto 2 years of making generative art on FxHash. We also read some interesting articles about generative art!

This post is a brief retrospective in which I look back onto the past two years of making code based blockchain art. I tackle some lessons that I've learned, some of the emotional struggles that I've experienced and conclude with some tips to grapple with this fast paced environment.

You've probably heard about ChatGPT, and you've probably heard that it can write code. In this post we're taking it for a spin and explore a practical example - we'll make it code a full-fledged particle system from scratch! Let's see what the best prompts are for this purpose!

This week we wrote an introductory guide to P5JS, we built a portfolio page for the blog to showcase previous projects, we got selected to make a piece for Proof of X, and we continued working on some sketches!

In this post we'll have a look at p5.js, a creative coding and generative art javascript library. We'll setup our first project, learn how to draw some shapes and get started on our creative coding journey.

This week we recreated an iconic piece by Vera Molnar, had a closer look at EditART and asked it's creator a couple of questions. We read about why "Generative Art is Stupid" and resume the controversial conversation about AI.
