Wikipedia has Special:Random which will take you to a random article. I thought these random articles would be a great way to explore wikipedia and discover new things, But because of the scale of wikipedia, most of the articles were not interesting reads. Bulk of wikipedia is just random …
I saw this old tweet today Tupper's self-referential formula is a formula that visually represents itself when graphed at a specific location in the (x, y) plane. pic.twitter.com/R0L3ZjqcyP — Fermat's Library (@fermatslibrary) December 13, 2021 The equation here is not the full picture. The "data" used …
8 x 8 Knight's Tour generated by Neural Network I recently came across this post by Dimitry Brant: Knight’s Tours Using a Neural Network . This version is implemented in C++ with flat arrays. A properly vectorized numpy re-implementation is long overdue, so I decided to give it a shot …
This video might take a few seconds to load. Please squint for best results :). The results of this experiment are not exactly close to my target as you can see, but I thought it was worth a blog post anyway. There was this rough idea I've been thinking about in …
Thank you Tyler Hobbs for the inspiration I recently found this piece of art (LINES 2A (2017)) created by Tyler Hobbs . This picture kinda looked very hand drawn, but it's completely generative. Something about this drawing and it's texture kind of resonated with me, so I wanted to try to …
I was wandering in Wikipedia when I came across this interesting page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obfuscation_ (software), and this interesting piece of code. char * M , A , Z , E = 40 , J [ 40 ] , T [ 40 ] ; main ( C ) { for ( * J = A = scanf ( M = "%d" , & C ); -- E; J[ E] =T [ E ]= E …
So.. I made a popular tweet last week in the #つぶやきProcessing circles. j=24,m=0,draw=(a=>{for(v=(i=>w/3*(n=noise)(i)-k),createCanvas(w=1e3,w),noFill(),background(' #fd7 '),translate(0,m--),i=0,y=0;y -m?curve(v(i …
This page might take a few seconds to fully load.. m=0,h=13,draw=_=>{for(createCanvas(w=1e3,w),background(i=k=n=0),t=t=>text(Array(\~\~R(5)).fill(R(w).toString(36)),w_t,i_h+m),a=textAlign,R=t=>noise(n++)_t,fill(" #つぶ …
I saw this image of Language families across the globe today, and decided I wanted to do something related. What would happen if I apply a clustering algorithm to all the Unicode characters? I wanted to this done really quickly, So no reinventing the wheel. The plans is to get …
I was trying to generate Pythagoras Tree fractal in p5js, when I decide to see what would happen If I add random() in the branch angle code. It turns out that with high amount of branching. They look pretty close to a grayscale photograph of Baby’s Breath Flowers (yup …
If you haven’t read Project Kasparov Part 1, I suggest you follow this link . All my web projects were written in jQuery till now (except the timer, which was Angular 1.0). I was hearing a lot of praise for react in Hacker News and Reddit. I wanted to …
Project Kasparov started out as a long-running desire to work on a chess related application. I found the Algorithms, Typography and Literature surrounding Chess fascinating. I am not very good at playing chess though. I was stuck with the failure of deploying canvasbot, My Genetic Algorithm Art bot at this …
I was experimenting with a lot of Genetic/Hill Climbing algorithms to generate Art. I started out by trying to approximate a Grayscale image with just lines of varying width and color intensity. The genetic algorithm is roughly like this: Algorithm : GA ( n , χ , µ ) // Initialise generation 0 : k = 0 …
Humans have an intuitive sense of symmetry and aesthetics. We try our best to make it easy to understand the concept we’re trying to explain. In textbooks, we see images like the one above, and not like this one.. I’m having labs in college where I have to …

Mostly a python programmer, but also knows Java, C, C#, JavaScript etc. Started learning on Scala and Elixir from 2019. First programming language was ActionScript! I wanted to be …
The Particle Collision project got me interested in Blender. Over the course of many years, I did several Renders. View this post on Instagram Found new hobby. 3D modeling. This is a model I've been working on from my college days. Decided to complete it, now that I've …

Projects Minim A very minimal, elegant new-tab page for chromium browsers. Get it here for chrome . Coming soon to firefox.
OK, So I saw this in reddit . And I wanted to do something like that. I had plans to mess around with Box2D for a long time but didn’t get the opportunity. After a day’s worth of research, I found out that Blender does a much better job …
This is the beginning of a big project I’m undertaking as a part of my Blackberry 10 Internship. It is a music player, which can analyze mood of a given track, and also guess our mood from the songs played. It uses support vector machine based regression to locate …
Found something useful to do with my enormous collection of movie subtitle files(.srt). Its a bot (like ELIZA or the emacs psychiatrist, not too bright) which is a huge movie fan. Ask him anything, he’ll reply with the closest known movie dialogue I’m attaching a sample conversation …
Just quicksort, mergesort and heapsort in a single image. I was obsessed with shrinking my code to fit in a single image :) For Reference, The best, average and worst complexities Algorithm Best Average Worst Quicksort \(\Omega(n\log{}n)\) \(\Theta(n\log{}n)\) \(O(n^2)\) Mergesort \(\Omega(n\log …
Maze Generation started out as an experiment. I was fascinated by maze generation algorithms. I used a randomized version of Kruskal’s algorithm . Create a list of all walls , and create a set for each cell , each containing just that one cell . For each wall , in some random order : If …
This one day code project which I did while I stayed at my mom’s place for vacation.It’s a messy sudoku solver in python. It somehow uses the same algorithm I use to solve sudoku (which is defenitely not the most efficient) in my mind. It comes up …
