I promise we're almost there.

I found the memory leak 🫠

Memory leaks or garbage collector - pick your poison

I can finally get some good night sleep.

Ok hear me out: Voldemort - Benedict Cumberbatch Snape - Adam Driver Mad-Eye - Daniel Craig McGonagall - Tilda Swinton Mrs. Weasley - Kate Winslet Bellatrix Lestrange - Eva Green Dumbledore - Christian Bale Sirius Black - Edward Norton Lucius Malfoy - Tom Hiddleston

Much needed addition to our social medial

I can't believe it, but I did #genuary1 fully inside Kinogaki. This spanned a lot of improvements, nodes, ideas and so on. I also added ability to name nodes and write comments so that when you share other people can understand.

Never forget the 80/20 rule

Still working on recreating #genuary1. This is an amazing exercise that prompted a lot of good changes. Third screenshot are the nodes inside the For Loop node. Wait until you see what a "Code" node can do :)

One important thing that I’ve learned, but have hit or miss applying in real life is this. When you look at your code/product/artwork and get this tingly feeling at the back of your head saying that there is this little thing that’s off, you should always fix it.

Didn’t finish Genuary 01 today, but fixed a lot of bugs and workflows issues.

As means for testing KINOGAKI, I'll power through Genuary once again using only it, just to make sure it's working. Will also publish all of the scene files as well.

Doing the little things...

I’m moving a long. A lot of improvements, bug fixes and features. Maybe next week I’ll post installers and a few more videos. There is a node that allows you to write code (which compiles to machine code), there are nodes that allow to do for loops as well. Exciting stuff…

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Trying new things. #penplotter #drawingmachine

BTW, the work is moving along with the plotter.

My total count of new lines of code for today is a negative number and I’m proud. The simpler everything is the more reliable it is. Can’t wait to share with you all an updated version.

Absolutely. There are plans for a whole context to process images and then use them to influence various parameters. Also nodes for color, physics, there are loops. There is also Code node that I’ll record a video on next.

Releasing an app that people can install is apparently witchcraft. A lot of waiting on certificates, DUNS number, and what now. Good news - that the desktop version is so stable and fast - it's almost indescribably better experience compared to the web version I published.

1 hour of coding features. 9 hours of configuring GitHub Actions to build an installer for Mac and Windows. Still going…

I generally dislike using AI when I code. Only use it on boilerplate code (simple in logic but long to type) o3-mini is really good. It started to change my mind. It feels like it’s inspired by the code that’s already there so it looks and reads the way I would’ve written it. Really interesting.

This is really cool

I’m just gonna chill the rest of the evening. So much potential now that I have a solid graphics engine.

Technical debt is real. Rewriting parts of Kinogaki the right way. I’m really thankful to all the DMs and bug reports. 🙏🏻

It is out! Go check it out. My dm's are open - I'll be happy to hear comments suggestions and just chat about it. There are lots of things to do. Lot's of things are planned and in the works, but for now I feel like it's time to release it into the wild.

Ahh - the struggles of a different point of view. It’s gonna be good though!

Should have a minimal demo you all can try in hopefully a week or so.

Plotted some Op Art for #genuary19 using KINOGAKI app. #genuary #plotterart #penplotter

A bit late to #genuary14 all black and white submission. Below is a very quick demo of KINOGAKI app that’s currently in development. #genuary #penplotter #plotterart

Something is cooking…

What does the wind look like? #genuary18 #genuary #genuary2025 #mathart

Doing a backplate for my new #penplotter.

Day 17 of Genuary 2025 Prompt: What happens if pi=4? In the software I use to generate this I wrote custom sin/cos functions that accept arbitrary PI value. From top to bottom it goes from 3.14 to 4.0 while drawing a circle. #genuary #genuary2025 #genuary17 #plotterart #penplotter

I've added custom xsin and xcos functions to scripting capabilities of "plot" and now I can show how things change when PI slowly becomes 4.0. Just need to color this and plot. This code runs per each point created by a point_grid.

The first #p5js 2.0 beta release is out! We're still in the process of writing up everything that has changed, but if you want to see some examples and help us test things out, head on over: github.com/processing/p...

This may as well be the most important node I write. It's using LUA in the background, but I will augment it so that it's more C like syntax without 'then' and 'end'

I think the more colorful version is more appropriate for #genuary16

Some parameters in action that I can play with

Day 16 of Genuary 2025 Prompt: Generative Palette It didn't come across on a photograph, but it's there. I promise #genuary #genuary2025 #genuary16 #plotterart #penplotter

Generative palettes? First I need some nodes, pen management and so on. Getting there

I need this in my life

Day 15 of Genuary 2025 Prompt: Design a rug.. Experimenting with the next iteration of my software. This was a lot of fun to do, since it's now realtime. #genuary #genuary2025 #genuary15 #plotterart #penplotter

Let’s call it a

Plotting this rug that I made in this new software that I wrote

I will need to catch up on today’s genuary. I’m heads deep into rewriting my plotter software in C++. 😳

Day 13 of Genuary 2025 Prompt: Triangles and nothing else. Maybe I cheated a bit, but I spent most of the day cleaning up my software. #genuary #genuary2025 #genuary13 #plotterart #penplotter

This is going to to be a lot of triangles #genuary #plotterart
