I’m surprised and impressed that it built a vector that it rasterized.

I wonder how well you can do by having a pseudo-random kernel walk and then mirroring it.

This is basically what I did! A modified version of a random walk to generate "invaders" with a gradient color. You definitely get some interesting shapes.

Sorry for using an url minifier the original url is too long. I'm using a custom web editor I built for generating this. Still working on shorter urls for it.

This and including muffinmans solution was part of a coding challenge for Creative Coding Amsterdam, for anyone interested and in the area definitely check it out https://cca.codes

    Very nice!

    I was thinking about using walkers, but after some doodling decided to go with vector shapes. I think the combination of the two could also produce some cool results.

    As lyr said, these are part of CCA's code challenge and we'll create a page to present all of the generators on one place.
