Diamond Fractal Fire #27

Description

Diamond Fractal Fire interposes recursively generated poetry with similarly recursive fractal imagery. Each text (unique for each mint, but always 20 sentences in length) is generated by a custom context-free grammar algorithm, fed with lists of words selected by the creator. The fractal pattern in each edition is a variation on a Koch snowflake fractal, one of the earliest fractals described by mathematicians. These fractals grow over time at varying rates, and pulse with varying color ranges using Perlin noise, eventually filling the screen. Push `h` to save high resolution PNG and JPG images of the complete fractal pattern (takes a moment to process) Push `s` to save PNG and JPG images of the current browser view (with current browser window dimensions and resolution) Push `v` to begin recording canvas as a video (with current browser window dimensions), then push `v` again to save the video Push `f` to toggle fullscreen mode Push `p` to toggle zoom pause Push `r` to toggle zoom reverse Push `c` to toggle color shift pause Push `l` to toggle low resolution mode (improves framerate) The animation is somewhat computationally expensive, and so it runs best on contemporary laptop and desktop computers. Mobile devices and older computers may experience low frame rates. Captured video quality may vary depending on compute and browser limitations. The animation is responsive (it will adapt to any screen or window size), and resizing your browser window also will restart the animation. Color floors and variances represent ranges for Hue using a Hue/Saturation/Brightness (HSB) color model. Velocities represent (subtle) zoom speed differences. Noise increment and start values affect the rate and variation of color shifts. In addition to the author's code, Diamond Fractal Fire relies on the p5.js library.
