As LLMs make it increasingly convenient to get answers without understanding how stuff works. I think P5 is more important than ever. I learned by experimenting and figuring stuff by myself. If you did as well, please consider donating to the P5: processingfoundation.org/support/donate/

Charlotte is INCREDIBLE. She has positioned us to do super magical things inside of Processing thanks to all the @bevy.org work she's done. Come to our Weekly World of @processing.org weekly meeting to learn more about it tomorrow: discord.gg/uDyZ5V24S?ev...

I haven’t watched the Backrooms movie yet, but I’d recommend Kane Parson’s The Oldest View for a good sense of what he’s capable of in the YouTube short film format.

Oh and (not sure if that's helpful but FYI) the prompts exist in json format, hosted at genuary.art/prompts.json (or e.g. genuary.art/2025/prompts... for previous years)

I've had issues with some long running cronjobs on GitHub repos with no recent commits. Looks like you have made commits at least once a month so it hasn't come up :)

Oh that’s so cool! Out of curiosity: did you run into the limitations of GitHub actions where workflows stop running after 60 days without activity on the repo? I guess not since Genuary only lasts for 30 days, but if you know of a workaround I’m interested 😃

They do! According to the video above a lot of the same people who worked on Alien (1979) worked on Outland too, including designers responsible for set and costumes.

I had never heard of Outland (1981). Went and checked out this fun video about it: youtu.be/kWD3FD8mpPE

Does "Outland" take place within the Alien Universe?

Big thanks to @msawired.bsky.social for offering a free API for OpenProcessing, which makes tools like opdl possible :)

Raphaël de Courville @sableraph.bsky.social · 17/05/2026
`opdl` is a command line tool to download your sketches from OpenProcessing, including assets, dependencies, allowing them to run locally.
Screenshot of a macOS terminal window running a sketch via opdl:

opdl 498713 --run

Might be a bit too niche, but if you use @openprocessing.bsky.social and also do local development, you might enjoy #opdl

I mean, it doesn’t look that bad when tiling but it’s not as dense as the original. Well, I’ll have to look at it again using my actual brain 😬

Processing editor window showing a Java sketch that loads the custom font “Ugly Gerry” and draws the alphabet. On the right, the sketch output shows a 400 by 400 pixel grid of uppercase letters A to Z, arranged in rows and columns. Each letter appears as a rough, jagged black shape on a white background, reflecting the irregular style of the Ugly Gerry font.
