Shameless plug/relevant background: I did this in order to make a flyer for a show I am playing with my band Congratulatinos in Oakland, CA on Dec. 17th Band: http://congratulatinos.bandcamp.com/ http://congratulatinos.bandcamp.com/ Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/661571907356009/ https://www.facebook.com/events/661571907356009/

Just to clarify: you started with the pic of the 2 guys and created the fading effect used to color the writing with pca? That's pretty awesome, I think the final effect is very pleasant to the eyes.

  The script merely remaps the pixels in the input to new locations via PCA. I'm not 100% sure I know what you mean by "2 guys" or "color the writing".

    The two guys on the page you just linked. The colored writing on the page you just linked.

      Huh still confused somehow, sorry. This is the input https://github.com/ardila/paintingReorganize/blob/master/input.jpg https://github.com/ardila/paintingReorganize/blob/master/inp... My script moves the pixels of that image around to get this output https://github.com/ardila/paintingReorganize/blob/master/output.png https://github.com/ardila/paintingReorganize/blob/master/out...

        They are asking how the generated gradient from the script was incorporated into the final image of the band promo.

        Ahhh. I tiled the image 4 times, remapped to polar coordinates, then did some color balancing.

        The flyer is in the facebook event not the band page. The cover photo for the album was a completely separate project :)

I opened a small PR - scipy was missing as a requirement (I'm guessing you already had it installed, and didn't stick it in requirements.txt)

  thanks. right on all counts.

This looks interesting. I was wondering if you could explain a little more about what information about a picture this transform is exposing? I mean, if you look at just the output image, what kind of insight can you gain into the original input image?

  For some paintings I think you can get a sense of what paints the painter used.

Did you also experiment with a simple sorting algorithm and if so, how were the results different?
