Artifex: Algorithmic Glitch Art Generator

PROJECT
ARTIFEX GLITCH ART GENERATOR

ROLE
Digital Artist & Code Specialist

OBJECTIVES

  • Develop a tool blending code and abstract art to produce glitch art.
  • Use the PaperJS library with ChatGPT4 to enable glitch art creation.
  • Allow users to easily create and save their glitch artworks in .SVG format.

SOFTWARE & TECHNOLOGIES

  • ChatGPT4 (for code support and project feedback)
  • PaperJS (for art generation)

Welcome to Artifex – a happy accident where my coding experiments and a not-so-secret love for abstract art collide, offering a playful escape into the world of glitch art generation.

In a digital arena, where AI creations like Midjourney and Dall-E steal the limelight, Artifex quietly slides in, presenting a quirky homage to the nostalgic yet ever-enticing allure of glitch art.

My journey with ChatGPT4 through the PaperJS library was an exhilarating ride, with calculated missteps, ‘aha!‘ moments, and perhaps one too many coffees. ChatGPT generously tossed in 30% of the code, nudging this unpredictable adventure towards a surprisingly functional end.

At the project’s conclusion, I sought feedback from ChatGPT about the clarity of my prompts and areas for improvement. ChatGPT reflected:

A colorful, complex expedition through algorithmic art, stitched together with creativity, perseverance, and occasional head-scratching. A dash more clear communication could potentially dial down the future enigma in problem-solving.

Now, Artifex v1.0 welcomes you to generate your own slice of glitch art, neatly saved in .SVG for prints, posters, and wherever else you fancy a dash of digital trash.

Just tap ‘Another!’ and dive into a chaotic cascade of vibrant, unpredictable visuals.

Join the fun, and let’s tumble together through a pixelated wonderland, where each image is not just art, but a lighthearted rebellion against the digital norm.
