"Aerial" is a generative (100% code) abstract artwork, emphasizing to texturing and painting surface aging wear, inspired by surfaces with erosion - corrosion, craquelure (cracks), scratches, etc for example old drying oil or tempera painting in materials like canvas, wall, stone or wood.

The abstract shapes in many cases resemble like aerial eye view formations which gave and the name to this collection.

The input for each iteration is some simple geometry (boxes) i "draw" in a WebGL canvas, using for variation perlin noise values. Then manipulate the pixels and perform color mapping (color values from my palettes) inside a GLSL shader.

"Aerial" includes 49 palettes (with several colors each) that have been stored externally (in the application folder) as Adobe ".act" color table files so that avoiding hard coding (including all palettes in the code) consuming in this way resources eg. memory from user's system. I just load only the one palette i am going to use

All are 100% code, no images used.

CONTROLS

KEYS:

- 1-3: Set resolution from 1x to 3x of the current dimension (possibly slower performance in higher values)
- T: switch texture on/off
- S: Save a png file with the current resolution

- P: Change orientation to Portrait (default) with aspect ratio 0.85
- L: Change orientation to Landscape
- O: Change orientation to Square (box)
Due to some 1:1 ratio sensitive calculations, rendering output may differ when switching orientations or resizing
