Hexfield, a Resident Generative Painting Studio
A local generative art system that turns seed text, field recipes, fonts, mutations, and taste feedback into exportable paintings.
Field notes
The system begins with seed text treated as a compositional stance rather than a lookup key: words steer qualities such as energy, containment, and density. It can combine field recipes, font templates, palettes, and learned stroke styles, then render up to ten small candidates before choosing the one most distant from its archive. Output presets include a 4.4:1 landscape master at 4400 × 1000, a 5:6 print at 4500 × 5400, and a square at 3600 × 3600.
