Paysages [Processing]

Pierre Commenge aka Emoc creates knitted like photographs using Processing. The application, with no UI, follows deterministic rules where every pixel of the picture is given pictorial qualities from its components in a color space. At the end, the original photography is reworked with more or less transformations depending on some parameters tweaks in the code. The results are beautiful images that sometimes adopt cartoon like qualities and at others create alternative new landscapes of colour texture and scale. See video below.

    colour space is how pixel color is defined. There are some different spaces to represent colours : RGB (Red / Green / Blue), HSB (Hue / Saturation / Brightness), etc. Anyway, space is the place
