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.

In this post we have a look at EditART, a hip new platform on the Tezos blockchain that revolves around customisable generate NFTs. We also ask it's creator, Piero, a couple of questions to wrap it up.

In this tutorial we'll recreate Vera Molnar's homage to Paul Klee. We learn how to draw patches of slanted lines to the canvas, a strategy for enumerating all possible combinations, and at the same time have a look at a recode from Golan Levin.

4th installment of Gorilla Recaps. This week we had a look at the life of Vera Molnar, built a Linktree clone and pondered a bit about sketching as a practice. We read about micropayments on Twitter, and how to grow your newsletter.

Sketches are more than just little artworks that you hack together in your bedroom. They're ongoing conversations that you have with the yourself and the machine. It's important to explore them, gain new perspectives and ultimately contribute to something larger than yourself.

In this post we'll learn how to build our own personal Linktree clone. Throughout, we'll have a look at the CSS flexbox and how it can be used to create responsive designs. A complete example is included at the end.

Vera Molnar is one of the pioneers of what we know today as Generative Art. She was one of the firsts to dare and use computers for the purpose of making art. In this article we have a look at her rich artistic career and how she paved the way for the computer artists of today.

This week we've got a bunch of visual updates, an automatically generated content overview and a linktree clone. Alongside some worthwhile reads about generative art and the current state of AI, as well as a handy CSS nugget.

In this post we'll thoroughly discuss what SVGs are, how they can be displayed on web pages, how we can algorithmically generate them, and how we can export them from our sketches.
