Genuary 2024

It's that time of year again🙌The month of January is one of the best times to discover stacks of fresh generative art every day and, if you're a generative artist, it's an opportunity to stretch your skills and imagination.

Everything you need to know👇

This year marks the fourth year of a creative annual event organized by @piterpasma where generative artists are given daily prompts for a full month to guide them in 31 unique directions. What a fun way to get out of the box and start a new year exploring a wide variety of techniques.

Keep up on this year's posts through tags such as and #genuary2024, #genuary for a general search, and see specific previous years' works starting with #genuary2021.

You can also find specific daily prompts with tags for each day of the month👇

The Full Prompt Schedule
#genuary1: Particles, lots of them.
#genuary2: No palettes.
#genuary3: Droste effect.
#genuary4: Pixels.
#genuary5: In the style of Vera Molnár (1924-2023).
#genuary6: Screensaver.
#genuary7: Progress bar / indicator / loading animation.

#genuary23: 8×8.
#genuary24: Impossible objects (undecided geometry).
#genuary25: If you like generative art, you probably have some photos on your phone of cool looking patterns, textures, shapes or things that you’ve seen. You might have even thought, “I should try to recreate this with code”. Today is the day.
#genuary26: Grow a seed.
#genuary27: Code for one hour. At the one hour mark, you’re done.
#genuary28: Skeuomorphism.
#genuary29: Signed Distance Functions (if we keep trying once per year, eventually we will be good at it!).

There are more details and links to help understand many of the prompts on https://t.co/9ZQbYDtGnH, as well as credits to each person who came up with them.

I'm excited to see all the creations that result out of this awesome initiative by piterpasma!❤️‍🔥

“A man is not dead while his name is still spoken."

When passing a message down the clacks, a ‘G’ means the message must be passed on, ‘N’ that it is not logged, and ‘U’ that the message will be turned around at the end of the line.

Last week, a Redditor fine-tuned an AI image model on the work of one illustrator, sparking a debate about the ethics of reproducing a living artist's style. I talked to that artist to see how she felt about it, and the person who made it. https://t.co/yzwpdpEPkt

@hHetty Gecrispr-de koeien die chocomelk geven?

[Stephane @stombeur]

my additional take on this: do not generate code in CI/CD pipelines (but sometimes you have no choice and pinning the generation tools version and its dependencies is the only option)

I had to help with a couple of "omg live is broken" bugs recently, and they were all because of differences between dev/preview/live builds. Every difference you add introduces risk.

Waarom hamer ik zo op taalgebruik en correcte berichtgeving? Omdat Russische desinformatie doorsijpelt in onze media en heel veel mensen beïnvloedt, met grote gevolgen. In deze blog leg ik het uitgebreid uit: taal doet ertoe. Veel meer dan je denkt. https://t.co/IlJ0ABh6GE
