Directed Evolution of Simple MSG Vector Shapes

  In a previous post we showed how to build a simple MSG preset that stacked a 3C Abstract11 CP processor to overlay simple arrow-like vector shapes to build an abstract procedural image. In this post we will expand on what we built on by hand, using the Evolution Editor and directed evolution to build…

Swap Evolving a Fixed MSG IO Routing Configuration

 Today’s post started with the MSG preset we hand built in yesterday’s post that generated an abstract image based on combining together 3 1C Truchet FlipMod processors and a 3C Truchet Mod1 CP processor to build up an overlaid abstract patterning image. I then worked with the Evolution Editor, using the Swap control button in…

Truchet Based Extreme Abstraction Ex2

 This post continues the discussion over the last 2 days, looking at different ways to build MSG presets that build complex overlaid truchet tiling patternings that are adaptively modulated with a source image. As with yesterday’s post, we’ll be focused more on creating an interesting abstract image with internal variability as opposed to building a…

Spatially Modulated Abstract MSG Grid Imagery

Today’s post will explore another MSG processor that generates abstract shapes, where the shape positioning is modulated by an input stream. We’ll show how you can stack multiple instances of the 3C Abstract 5 Grid Mod CP processor to build up spatially variant abstract image complexity.
