Thoughts

The third generative-art engine in the series. The problem of turning a seed into something that reads like a film reduced to color, a little of the maths behind it (seeded noise, OKLCH, a texture model), and a demo you can drive.

A follow-up to the Vasarely piece. How I generate deterministic avatars from a username, first as ordered-dithered identicons, then as halftone dot fields where the dot size does the drawing.

How I rebuilt Victor Vasarely's Vega-Nor as a pure, deterministic TypeScript function, with OKLab paint ramps, an area-conserving spherical warp, and colorways generated from a seed. Every image here comes from a seed.
