The Artist's Husband: AAHS!!

In my previous post , we came up with a program to generate a single 8-armed component of the aah tangle. In this post, we’ll figure out how to spread them randomly around the canvas, as in the image at the top of the post. We’ll use the program from the last post as a starting point. As a first try, let’s just generate a draw 20 aah images randomly on the canvas. Our draw() function looks like this:

Any Zentanglers out there who made it through my previous posts on generative art may be wondering whether these techniques can be used to draw Zentangles . Let’s try! Zentangles are built from patterns, called tangles. We’ll try to create a tangle called aah. This is one of the original tangles from the Zentangle originators . There are many variations of aah. We’ll start with a simple 8-armed design. Tandika’s step-out for it looks like this:

In my last post , I talked about generative art, and showed a simple example using Javascript and the p5.js library. In this post, I’ll show another relatively simple example using slightly different techniques. Basically, the process is still the same: program the computer to generate a simple drawing and add an element of randomness. For this example, I am still using Javascript and p5.js. Many of you may be unfamiliar with Javascript. In this post, I am using Javascript, and am trying to make it as clear as possible. But I am not trying to teach you Javascript. If you would like to learn more about Javascript or programming in general, there are some excellent on-line resources, some free, some not. Javascript is not the only programming language that could be used, I chose it for this series of posts because it’s probably the easiest to get started with (open the online editor in your browser and just start adding code!) If you are already familiar with another language, there is a good chance you can find a way to do art with it!

I am the Artist’s Husband. Yes, I really am Tandika’s husband, and no I am not really an artist. But I am interested in art! I am a software engineer. Recently, I have been looking in to generative art , or art which is created through some automated means, and I thought I would share some of what I have learned as well as some of the results of my early experiments.
