Explore a fascinating 12-minute conference talk from !!Con 2024 where artist and programmer Rebecca Ravenoak demonstrates how to create digital flowerbed textures using algorithmic techniques inspired by ancient and modern polychrome textiles. Learn about the fascinating intersection of traditional weaving patterns, specifically the Crackle or Jämtlandsdräll fabric structure, and digital art creation. Discover how overlapping and interlacing colors, similar to textile weaving techniques, can generate unique pixel art patterns and textures. Drawing from their experience as both a computer programmer and textile artist, Ravenoak shares insights from their creative practice, which spans digital and physical mediums, all while working from their cat-filled, succulent-adorned home south of Oakland.
