ONE WORD (Ed.1)
IPFS
30 July 2022•TEZOS•IPFS
Inspired by the cut-up technique by William S. Burroughs, which was later used by David Bowie to create some of his song lyrics.
It generates a sequential list of a few hundred words that are placed at random locations on the canvas without overlapping.
Under the hood, a home-built spatial subdivision algorithm is used to look for empty spaces where the next random word might fit.
Originally, the plan was to publish this work with categorized words that somehow fit together into a theme, but after playing around with it, I found that this didn't match the original idea of the cut-up technique.
Also, it was very interesting to see completely arbitrary and unrelated words close together, forming incomplete fragments of a possible sentence. Just use your imagination!
The list of words was created while thinking about the current situation in the world and reading the news. Note, however, that it may happen that some words close to each other form a strange combination.
Press [S] to save in high resolution (long side = 4096 pixels).
Features:
Format - Portrait 40%, Landscape 40%, Square 20%
Canvas - Black 50%, White 50%
Background - Black 50%, White 50%
Post-Effects - None 33%, Light 33%, Strong 33%
Color Drop - Normal 50%, Inverse 50%
made with typescript and pixi.js
