Generative Dinosaur

Generate unique new species of dinosaurs!

-Technical Specifications
Bezier curves of six parts (face, head, neck, back, legs, and tail) are connected to create a dinosaur silhouette. Each part has 100 different types, each of which will be scaled and some deformed. Therefore, the variations of shapes that can be generated are infinite.

-Interactive Feature
Clicking on the image or pressing the "w" key on your keyboard will randomly reconstruct the dinosaur's shape with "wrong connections". This is a bit avant-garde and, in a way, the most artistic part of the piece.
Pressing the "b" key or press-and-hold for touch devices will toggle to black-and-white mode. This is to make it easier to pick the shape of the dinosaur.

-Painting Style
The background design is inspired by the gold and silver leaf often used in Rinpa school paintings during the Edo period in Japan. This is a reference to the fact that Rinpa painters such as Tawaraya Sotatsu and Ogata Korin were masters of well-designed paintings that made use of silhouettes. In this project, silver is standard and gold is rare.
