Generative Code Art Library - @batpb/genart:

• @batpb/genart is a TypeScript compatible library built on p5.js for creating responsive generative art projects. Development of this project is currently ongoing.

Color Flow, A Generative Code Art Project

• A cluster of shapes whose colors shift and change over time. This project was published as a generative NFT collection on October 2, 2022.

Traveling Triangles, A Generative Code Art Project

• Starting from a random initial position, a triangle generator creates a trail of randomly colored triangles, where each triangle must share a point with the next one. Older triangles slowly fade away, growing fainter and fainter as time goes on. There can be multiple triangle generators in one piece, and the number of triangle generators on the screen is random. This project was published as a generative NFT collection on June 3, 2022.

Gradient Graphs, A Generative Code Art Project

• A Gabriel Graph is a special kind of graph in graph theory where an edge can only be formed between two nodes if the circle formed by those two nodes contains no other nodes in the graph. A Random Geometric Graph is a graph where an edge can only be formed between two nodes if they are less than a certain distance away from each other. The program generates random Gabriel Graphs and Random Geometric Graphs, where the graphs have a random number of nodes and each node has a random position. Each node is assigned a color, and each edge is colored according to the two nodes at each end, with a gradient line and gradient circle that slowly transition from one color to the other. Users can interact with the project to remove the nodes, edge lines, or edge circles, choosing how they would like the graph to be displayed. This project was published as a generative NFT collection on May 8, 2022.
