Hi ! My name is Nathan, I am an engineer with a master's degree in data-science and robotics, deeply interested in software engineering and creative coding. I started playing around with generative code a few years ago. Over the past few months, I have been working on this project with the objective of making my mosaik algorithm accessible through a web interface.
This mosaik project began with a simple 2D mosaic algorithm using a few parameters, then gradually expanded to offer more options and transitioned into 3D elements. There is no AI involved in the process, the algorithm simply uses functions to interact with the pixels values.
What I find interesting about generative code is designing a set of tools and a framework without controling the final outcome. Anyone can use the interface, play around with the parameters and take the algorithm to a different direction depending on their own taste. I did design a tool and a general creative direction, but anyone can use it in a different way and create their own interpretation.
Without a user friendly interface, the algorithm was only accessible through python code. I developed this online webapp for people to interact with the code in a more intuitive way. I hope you have fun using it!
