Beautiful. Reminds me of the amazing visual art of Adam Fuhrer[1].

I've been building something similar[1], but focused more on generating desktop/mobile wallpapers based on a desktop theme.

Most of the designs is build via python-scripts that generate the final SVG's which then can be recolored in browser. Claude + a harness is surprisingly adept at generating these scripts, i guess pelicanmaxxing might be the reason?

Is this a rip of turtletoy[1] content?

		Why would it be a ripoff? Generative art sites are like this. Turtle toy is really neat, thanks for the tip.

Looks useful. I was experimenting with making an SVG creator tool that can churn out shapes that go beyond the shape library of microsoft powerpoint -- so my slides can stand out. Things like a hexagon with rounded corners, squircle, swooshes and blobs etc.

Patterns like these are useful as well.

		One problem which I've had working in this space is the difficulty of naming specific shapes --- worked up a list in my current project: https://github.com/WillAdams/gcodepreview/blob/main/gcodepre... (should be section 3.8.1.1 on pg. 97, not sure, since I need to push up an update) and I'd be glad of any comment or correction or point of improvement.
