I make generative art, and other stuff, under the name moonshot104.
The work starts with an idea, then a set of rules, then code — but it does not end there. I build systems that produce images through mathematics, randomness, colour, repetition, placement, accident, and a lot of curation and fine-tuning. My software can turn an idea into thousands of possibilities. The art isn't just in creating an algorithm — it's also in deciding which ones are worth keeping.
Most of the work is made in GAS, a generative art studio I built for myself. It is a browser-based tool for exploring shapes, palettes, layers, grids, movement, texture, and chance. I use it the way I might use a sketchbook or a camera: not to get a perfect result immediately, but to find something I would not have found by drawing a straight line from idea to outcome.
The art is generative, not AI-generated. AI helped me build parts of the tool, but it does not make the work.
The images come from the rules I write, the systems I tune, the things I choose, and the things I reject. Taste still has a massive part to play.
I came to this from art, photography, music, abstract painting, and a long habit of making things. The NFT side arrived later, mostly through collecting, then slowly through sharing my own work. DRiP became the place where the project found its rhythm: weekly collections, small rituals, snapshots, giveaways, and a community that has quietly become part of the work itself.
