/01 Why
Generative work is design with rules instead of pixels. You set up the system, the code does the drawing, and taste decides what stays. It’s the same muscle as building a brand: define the rules, then watch them play out.

LOG_01
Oct 2026
Four small systems. Contour lines, a flow field, a noise grid and orbits. Two colours, one red accent, all running live.
LOG_02
Next
Interaction. Letting the mouse bend the system, and exporting stills as prints.
/04 What I learned
01
Constraints make it look designed. Two colours and one rule beat ten options.
02
One accent does the storytelling. The red line is where your eye goes first.
03
Slow motion feels premium. Fast generative work quickly turns into a screensaver.
