A p5js sketch exploring generative characters built from textured primitives forming bodies and shapes.
Approach
Joe prefers "simpler cleaner lines" for characters, influenced by a graphic design sensibility — letting characters stand out among the chaos. The sketch uses loose rules and constraints that allow for rapid generation, with surprise found in the random, noisy, and organic iterations.
Detail
The CatSuit itself wraps around a center "CatPit," with textured primitives assembling into character forms. Each regeneration produces a unique variation within the defined constraint system.
