Timelapse
09 April 2012
I needed a small time lapse application to document a project so I decided to write one myself. I’ve used Processing 1.5.1 and the fantastic controlP5 library. I’m using a Logitech webcam that supports HD video. The sketch saves images of 1280 × 720 pixels.
Cloudswimmers Alphabet, the Process
04 April 2012
In January this year, I launched my new design studio Cloudswimmers. For the identity of the studio, I designed a custom 3D font with Processing and Hemesh. The individual characters were printed at Shapeways. The 3D prints are 40 × 50 × 20 mm in size. This is what they look like in real life.

Voronoi Paintings with Toxiclibs
28 July 2011
Every generative artist has probably created a work using Voronoi diagrams. I already wrote a tutorial on how to create them with Hemesh. Today, we’ll take a look at how you can create 2D voronoi diagrams with the popular Toxiclibs library for Processing.
Kinetic Typography, Workshop Notes
07 July 2011
In this article, I’ll explain some techniques I use on a regular basis to create typographic experiments with Processing. The examples were used in the Kinetic Typography workshop I did last year with my students in Brussels. The goal of this workshop is to visualize a word or phrase using Processing.
