Show HN: I made a generator of art – Suprematism

  • If you're impressed by this I recommend browsing https://shadertoy.com - some amazing generative art there.

    Shane is one of the masters: https://www.shadertoy.com/user/Shane

    And of course Inigo Quilez, the site's creator: https://www.shadertoy.com/user/iq

  • Looks like a bunch of shapes randomly scattered on canvas. Nothing "generative" about that. Procedural content uses rules to produce patterns; This doesn't.

  • Im missing something, i get 3,4 random shapes.

  • If you search for those images on Yandex it's very interesting how many similar images there are [0]. It's as if a lot of people find triangles, squares, line, ... in different colors with high artistic worth. These also remind me of a type of art which name I cannot recall that I saw in a museum once.

  • I love generative art and suprematism. That's why I've created this generator. You can export designs to Figma or Sketch, and also save as jpeg or HD video. Yahooo/Yoohoo

  • This looks great! I was in Hamburg and saw a show of Robert Longo, Goya and Eisenstein drawings. I was really fascinated to learn that Eisenstein drew a lot like Malevich. But you can see that sort of diagramatic thinking in both his movies and in the Suprematists around him.

    This is a really interesting project, thanks for showing it to us!

  • Reminded me of Deko[1]. Used it a lot when I had an iPhone.

  • They appear to stop when one intersects the center of another or they all pass the point of being able the intersect the center of another. Neat idea.

  • Now just somehow generate an NFT for each one of them. Endless money from the crypto fan boys...
