Art / Calcs can make art on their own...
« on: January 14, 2017, 07:55:11 am »
Being a tech nerd myself, I ALWAYS fail at making decent art (school art class absolutely sucks 
).
Of course, I like looking at beautiful art, but I also hate most art. So I decided to see if I can get my calc to make some decent art. I succeeded in doing this by making a program (TI-BASIC mandatory for this) that generates random explosion-like line-based images. It is fun to watch how they get made up, line by line. Of course, the 15MHz z80 extends the drawing time way to much. I haven't gotten around to putting it on ticalc.org, but I may do so on the next school break or some other time. So,yes, this prooves that a primitive device like my TI84+SE can make art.
