I made this with Ollin, a creative coding framework for Swift and Metal. I wrote it for my sketches and use it every day. It is open source, in case anybody wants to play with it: ollin.art

Another reimplementation of a 2021 sketch. Gooey blobs move on Lissajous curves, and their outline expands, ring after ring, until it fills the frame. When two blobs get close, their rings melt together. S/N: 2026.016 #creativeCoding #generativeArt #dailySketch #ollin #distanceField

The blobs push the trail in front of them, like a body moving through water. A distance field tells every pixel how far the edge is, so the lines close to it slide away and the far ones stay.

Ollin traces the caustics, the light the glass bends onto the table. It splits that light by color like a prism, so little rainbows spill out around the drops.

Another reimplementation of a 2021 sketch, where gooey blobs moved on Lissajous curves. Now they melt together into drops of dark glass. S/N: 2026.014 #creativeCoding #generativeArt #dailySketch #ollin #caustics

Now the blobs are metaballs, soft shapes that merge when they get close, and Ollin stacks their outlines into a 3D solid with marching cubes. The flat top is the newest shape, and each white ring is an older outline.

Three lines moving on Lissajous curves. The colors come from a complex logarithm, implemented in a shader with Ollin's complex number helpers. Each pixel adds up the angles from one end of each line to the other. S/N: 2026.012 #creativeCoding #generativeArt #dailySketch #ollin #complexNumbers

Each line is added as light, like a long exposure, so the color builds up where it slows down. The space between them gets a Laplace fill in Ollin: each empty pixel becomes the average of its neighbors.

Another reimplementation of one of my old sketches from 2021: the ends of two lines move on Lissajous curves, swinging at random speeds. S/N: 2026.011 #creativeCoding #generativeArt #dailySketch #ollin #lissajous

This time the drawing is made of real 3D shapes in Ollin, with lights, shadows, and a camera going around them.

Another reimplementation of one of my old sketches, this one from 2021. Two lines moved through the canvas without clearing it, so they accumulated into the drawing. S/N: 2026.010 #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #3d

The dots also sync up with their neighbors, following Kuramoto, a model of how fireflies flash their lights together.

Another reimplementation of one of my old sketches from 2020. A follow-up to yesterday's sketch, but this time with a tube composition, traveling through the rings. Using Ollin's depth-of-field rendering. S/N: 2026.008 #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #bokeh

Edgardo Avilés-López @eavl.co · 21/09/2026

Each dial has a different number of rings, with its own widths, speeds and order of the five colours. This time it uses Ollin's depth-of-field rendering, so the focus moves across the grid.

Following up on yesterday's sketch, another reimplementation of one from 2022. I was playing with composition and tried the dials packed like a honeycomb. S/N: 2026.007 #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #bokeh

Edgardo Avilés-López @eavl.co · 19/09/2026

Each ring is broken into short arcs and turns at its own speed. This time it uses Ollin's depth-of-field rendering, so the focus moves back and forth through the rings.

I made a new version of one of my sketches from 2020. The original was inspired by the animation on the website of the Atom code editor. S/N: 2026.006 #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #bokeh

Another depth-of-field sketch with a five-sided aperture. The tower is a stack of square outlines, each turned a little from the one below it. Lines and dots fall through it, and the ones out of focus come out as pentagons. #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #bokeh

Same depth of field technique as yesterday, particles instead of a blur filter, now on a landscape made of lines. #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #bokeh

I wanted to understand the depth of field technique in Domenico Bruzzese's Blurry, so I made my own version of one of his demos in Ollin. S/N: 2026.003 #creativecoding #generativeart #dailysketch #ollin #particles #bokeh #swiftlang
