New filter ▶️ Rendering / Chladni Figures ◀️ available in our G'MIC-Qt plug-in! It mathematically simulates complex sand shapes created by 2D wave interference. You can tweak the X/Y frequencies, sand granularity, and colormaps to create endless hypnotic variations. ✨ #GenerativeArt #CreativeCoding

Let's look at G'MIC for image processing! I think the more people are aware of what great tools are out there, the less they'll resort to generative AI. G'MIC is open-source software. Get it as a plug-in for Affinity, Krita, Photoshop, GIMP, etc, or as a standalone tool, from gmic.eu/gmic300/

🌀 New in G'MIC: SVG export for filter ▶️ Rendering / Variable-Density Hilbert Curve ◀️. This filter turns an image into one single, continuous, space-filling curve, and now it can export it as a clean, scalable SVG instead of just pixels. Screenshot: the exported SVG opened in Inkscape 👇
