Generative Gestural Abstraction 1 #23

Generative Gestures. Algorithmic Abstraction. Brushstrokes generated with code, nested & compressed into a shaped canvas. These are the expressionist paintings a computer would dream up.

Four rarity features are listed below. Other traits also contribute to the output but are not part of the rarity calculation, e.g. stroke weight, gestural complexity, and colors, which are chosen randomly (no defined palettes).

Layers: 1-7
Determines the number of gestures that are layered on top of one another. "7 Layers" is the rarest outcome at ~2% expected occurrence; 1 & 6 Layers are the 2nd rarest at ~4%.

Closed Loops: Yes/No
Determines whether the gestures close in on themselves, creating an infinite line (it's not always obvious by looking at the image). ~30% expected chance of Closed Loop output.

Dark Mode: Yes/No
Dim the lights. ~10% expected rate.

Transparency: Yes/No
Brushstrokes overlap each other with a combination of various transparency modes, creating even more unpredictable beauty. ~10% expected rate.
