This is awesome.

The way the artists work this very limiting and demanding medium is impressive, and probably not even easily imitated by general-purpose generative models.

Karliss•1mo ago
You might want to take a look at https://diffusionillusions.com/ . You don't need a specialized models, little bit of traditional code for enforcing constraints on top of general purpose models can do quite a bit.

Can anyone else see the fish photo and think only of Godel Escher Bach (a book you read 10% of then skipped through the photos of)?
troupo•1mo ago
Never read the book, but Escher is one of my favorite artists. So any number of his fish and birds immediately come to mind: https://www.escherinhetpaleis.nl/en/about-escher/escher-toda...
riffraff•1mo ago
I thought of Escher since tesselation is what he's famous for beyond impossible shapes (metamorphosis II [0] is among my favorite pieces of art).

I definitely read less then 50% of GEB too, but I think I skipped to the Achilles and the Tortoise dialogs rather than the pictures :)

The simple website doesn't work. Everything seems to be driven by incompatible/broken JavaScript, even what should be straight simple links. I'm too lazy to fire up Chromium to find out if it works there.
satvikpendem•1mo ago
Works for me on Firefox, not sure what broken JS you're seeing

Interesting!!!

Cool site, I especially appreciate the detailed about page [1] including the libraries used for the graphics (paperjs + GSAP) and the bloopers section [2], covering interesting glitches from development.

Thanks for sharing

This is awesome. I love tessellated art. I’m posting my comment so I can come back to this
