I made an improvement this week – the variations random-selection code will now also vary the assigned value of colors (as well as altering colors themselves, and fractal parameters like C and breakout value).

Enjoy! You can sign up on the MathPaint mailing list to get Fractal Friday and MathPaint art and announcements in your in-box.

Bring the noise! MathPaint gets more algorithms, plus templates

The forthcoming MathPaint beta now has a fairly complete noise-rendering feature set. There are several algorithmic noise-generation modes – Perlin, Billow, Ridged, and Voronoi – as well as MathPaint’s own random-shape drawing mode. In addition to the feature, I’m starting to build the collection of templates that will ship with the app as starting points … Read moreBring the noise! MathPaint gets more algorithms, plus templates
