Genuary

Genuary is an initiative about encouraging creation of generative art thanks to a new oblique-strategiesque prompt every day of January.

This year, I set myself the objective of doing the daily prompts with score, and use it as an opportunity to showcase a few features, find some bugs, and try to find what is lacking in terms of generative abilities.

Here are all the videos so far (which started on Vimeo and swiftly moved to Youtube when I ran out of space).

The scores are accessible on Github. Some may require specific VST, LV2 or JSFX plug-ins.
