Some news about the Abstract asset pack series (Repeats, Textures and Tiles).

They are now CC0 1.0.

Been thinking about this for a bit, but with Scanned Textures out and wanting to try other things, its the right time to do this. It's been cool seeing what people do and hope this gives more options.

That said, I would still like to do 701 to 800 for textures and 201 to 300/301 to 400 for repeats.

Text - The Abstract asset pack series is now CC0 1.0!, Abstract Repeats, Abstract Textures, Abstract Tiles, -clasticartistic-. Image - Washed out blue/white texture.

I came across this halftoning idea sometime last week. While the idea was relatively easy to understand and fun to implement, I've spent quite a lot of time trying to make the result look nice.

In each row, the image is split into bins containing roughly the same sum of lightness value. This is nice to implement when the number of lines/bins is a power of 2, so we can recurse with a binary split. Thus the line density varies by average lightness. The problem is that density is considered along the x-axis. If things change a lot between rows, the lines get slanted, so they appear more dense. Here I've included some averaging between neighbouring rows to make thing a bit smoother.

I'm also including a fun glitch from the early tests. The line-density system includes the set of point coordinates and the graph structure (which point is connected to which). What happened here is my generic graph generator that simply finds the nearest neighbours of each point. So in the light areas that are compressed horizontally, the nearest neighbours were left and right.

As we can see in this video 👆, these patterns are mostly handled by women. I've observed it myself when living in a Huni Kuin community in 2023.

However, the community where I was didn't bake their own ceramic. So it's fascinating to see how they do it in this documentary.

Anyway, this is great news that the cultural heritage of the Huni Kuin peoples is finally recognised officially 🥇

Details of curving rock formations display intricate patterns and rich hues along the edge of Lago Argentino in the Patagonia region of Argentina. Sparse greenery is along the top, contrasting with the textured surface below. Processed with painterly finish.
