New #paragraphic 1.5.2 update released with a couple of smaller fixes and improvements and a new Join Paths node that lets you combine groups of paths into a single connected path. Surprisingly fun to play around with! Full change log: paragraphic.design/blog/version...

For another way of creating symmetries in #paragraphic 1.5 you can use the new Mirror repeater node to create offset reflects copies of layers using a set of customizable mirror planes. Try it out at paragraphic.design

Gold Star 1. A melding of the parallel line esthetic popular with penplotter artists and Turin pattern. A single line plot, 100x150mm, gold on black. #penplotter #algorist #1penup #turingpattern

Being able to work with or without fills is a key aspect of working with tuned Turing patterns. The art stands on either plotter or printer. #algorist #reactiondiffusion #penplotter #printer

Emancipation Day 1913 on PlotterFiles plotterfiles.com/artwork/eman... - my contribution to celebrating freedom.

I plotted a photo from 1913 of a family in a decorated carriage for Emancipation Day. Happy Juneteenth, may we all learn and repair. 8.5x11in, Inkjoy 0.7, HP Plotter Paper. #penplotter #juneteenth #publicdomain

In the musical Ragtime, the song "Wheels of a Dream" encapsulate the earnest promise of America for the Black family. That song has always reverberated with me. On this Juneteenth, I learned that people would celebrate Emancipation Day by decorating their horsedrawn carriages.

For the #sciart fans

I hope to finally get this to Steam this time (and this summer).

A photo of a QR code isn't parsed inside the MacOS Photos app. You'd think that's simple, but it's frustrating. Instead of pointing your phone at your computer screen - enter Auge https://auge.franzai.com/. Installs via brew. Run in terminal. Can probably write a Shortcut for it.

Turns out, keeping the original packaging for a Mac results in a little better offer with at least one reseller.

Being in the generative art world, the artistic style can literally be a codified algorithm. I suppose being asked for my code is a form of flattery? Not that just getting someone's unpackaged code is necessarily that useful.

One of my favorite artists has died... David Hockney. This is my homage to his work... such pure, simple lines that bring so much complexity with them.

What were towels like before the invention of terry cloth? Moreover, how do we recognize an item as a towel archeologically?

Congratulations to @lostminds.bsky.social for the release of Paragraphic 1.5 paragraphic.design/blog/version... (not sponsored - I just like the software). #generativeart

You know why there's so much slop? Because the Google algorithm pushes it. The human in the loop is a barrier to the algorithm. #aislop

BantamTools has really upped the ante on Plottefiles.com. The Unsourced section makes for a good location to display plots. plotterfiles.com/results/2ed8... #plotterart

I've tried tinkering with X-code, and it's so heavily loaded towards building guis. I'm not sure how it integrates with local LLMs. #apple #development

So vibe coding comes to Siri Shortcuts. Which is kind of where it needs to be anyway. I did encounter my set of challenges when debugging Shortcuts #wwdc #apple

Waiting for the list of AI chat apps getting Sherlocked with the new Siri. (although I think TUIs are safe) #wwdc #keynote

The irony of Activity Monitor on macOS is how much resources it actually take. I am often amused when it takes over 100% CPU when it finally gets going.

It’s Jadzia now, thanks.
