Inspired by Chris Coyier’s article Let’s Make Generative Art We Can Export to SVG and PNG and the print “50 Shades of Blue” by P22 Type Foundry, I made a pen that generates random patterns using Recursive by Arrow Type.
See the Pen Generative Glyph Art by srwild (@srwild) on CodePen.
I made this in a couple hours in the morning on my birthday. I was in a rut and hadn’t made anything not work related in a long time. I don’t know what it was about the combination of reading the article and seeing P22’s print on Instagram that struck me.
I created a similar GlyphArt generator to create open graph images for this site.
This pen works best viewing it on CodePen, instead of the small frame below.
