FALLiNGWATER

Dev Diary

Friday 4th July, 2025

Another one of those of those projects where I really should go and back-fill all the information we have about it so far. FALLiNGWATER was/is a generative art project of mine that released on Alba, as part of their print inspired gallery thingy.

I've had a super soft spot for FALLiNGWATER every since, and keep coming back to it, changing the format a little, getting it to output SVG versions for pen plotting and the like.

The main design was created with posters in mind, specifically portrait style with verticality going on, but I wanted to have a go at making a series of notebooks out of them. 32 generative notebooks to be exact. For this I wanted the main design to be on the right hand side, but other parts of the design to wrap around to the back. With some tweaking of the code, which basically boiled down to "Do what you were doing before, but shift everything to the right, apart from the background, and then extend some horizontal elements all the way across the page".

Then I got the code to spit out hundreds of designs, and picked a few that I like.

Here they are looking nice and colourful, and will soon become notebooks.
