Since no one else asked... how is this done? Are there any specialized programs for this sort of graphical/visual programming? Or is this just a bunch of Python scripts using 3D/math/plot libs?

- mcphage 3y agoThere are specialized programs, but there are also languages like Processing that are often used for computer art. Not sure what was used for these, however.
- rustypotato 3y agoThe site actually has some tutorials for creating these sorts of animations with a specific focus on perfectly looping gifs [1]. Looks like it's all done with Processing [2].

- wraptile 3y agoWow this is suprisingly accessible! How are people incorporating this aside from screensaver? That high contrast LCD screen from playdate would make a brilliant frame for these animations.
- juggertao 3y agoYou semi-randomly try stuff. Iterate on what's cool (genetic selection). Also study the code of other animations to learn the general ideas and patterns.
