April Showers by Andrew Mitchell

Released Apr 24, 2023

April Showers is a set of generative surreal landscapes created with p5js. Each piece attempts to encapsulate the viewer into a world overgrown. I like to think of them as if I was shrunk down and placed into thicket—one square inch of this thicket would look like an entire universe to me. Completely surrounded by the beauty of the Earth, I could feel the natural rhythms of nature—the changing seasons, the ebb and flow of the tides, the cycles of day and night.

My process is as follows: I write code, generate an image, tweak the code, generate another image, tweak the code some more, and so on. Each image uses a random hash string that I generate at runtime, which ensures that no two outputs will ever be the same. Over the course of a few months, I end up with thousands of images. April Showers is a selection of my favorites.

Generative art is never “finished”. There are always ways to improve an algorithm—to make it more efficient, or add new features to it. This drop, like others in the past, contains the end products of working on a specific javascript file on my computer. Following a drop like this, I would usually create a new file.

‘April Showers bring May Flowers’ is how the saying goes. Seemed fated that this drop would happen in April.

Thanks.
